"162.R.11.3" George Anderson provided a wonderful narrative below~ The pistol was issued to the 11th Company of Infantry Regiment 162. Included is a First model 1916 German issue Stahlelm with original camouflage painting added by the Germans in 1918 or 1918. Its marked on the interior "Gefr. Schoo.II.Batl.I.R.162" Awesome! Thank You My Friend!

Thank you! I have 3 1913s and photographed the wrong one~ I will repost the correct gun in the morning. The remaining is all correct, Eric
