Thanks for all the replies !
So, I can have that grip "repaired'? I see and understand why it is chipped at the top left and right. And that the chip near the saftey is just from the grip being removed carelessly,( but if the grip was removed , that means someone was caring for the gun and cleaning it,correct? )
What I dont get is, why was the magazine safety installed or removed, what is the timeline on that?
I also made some headway on the receiver markings, The first stamp on the left is the" AYA4 Eagle is the 1920/21 Weimar Military Police Proof" meaning this was the first stamp added maybe?? The second looks identical , correct ? Why would there be two in a row? And the third is another type of Military Police proof?
I got that info here http://www.phoenixinvestmentarms.com...eimarpol21.htm
And why would the gun be made for the Military police, and then a policeman grind off the grip strap marking?
Thanks again for all of the info !
