Finally filled a hole
I focus on the Erfurts and a lugged 1913 has eluded me for a long time - until now. It’s all matching except the magazine, even the unfluted firing pin. It came with a very nice unmarked DWM magazine (commercial) but a quick search through my spares turned ip a double-crowned Erfurt magazine. The only detractor I can find is the lack of paint in the “GESICHERT” marking Anyway, here are a couple photos…
