Just have to wait for them to arrive now !
You did nice with the Mauser 1908! Great gun to own. It is almost identical to the Gewehr 98, except for the rear sight and caliber, of course. The Brazilian Army bought so many of them (around 400,000) that a good number remained unissued for decades and were sold to surplus dealers almost intact. Your seems to be the case. Now you just need to find a Brazilian Luger to match!

Please, post pictures of your Erfurt later, mate (as well as the Mauser M1908).

Congratulations!

Douglas.
