Excellent thought; one that had not occurred to me.

The box does look brand-new; the individual parts all look new & unworn. The only 'wear' now is where I took a stone to the barrel liner/chamber edge area, to get a measurement for my chamber plug. (There was still a sharp edge, with a burr). The printed instructions are also new-looking; no fading or discoloration, no creases or dog-ears.

No protrusion on the magazine.

I noticed that my reamer pilot would not enter the Ermal barrel liner, although it did/does enter the 7 1/2" barrel. The Erma bore is just slightly smaller than the 7 1/2" barrel bore. I suppose the Erma is not manufactured to SAAMI standards as any US barrel would be.

Did or does Erma still make these conversion units? Did they make conversions for the 70's Mauser Lugers?

Is Erma still in business?
