Rear Conncecting Pin - Again

FWIW I just got through looking at 25 DWM and MAUSER

manufacture ranging in condition from well worn to 98% plus.

I had never really noticed this before or paid close attention to, but all the DWM's connecting pins are UN-NUMBERED whereas all the MAUSER pins are NUMBERED. Of these,one is a 1918 DWM rework by Simson and the pin is un-numbered; another is a Sneak numbered in both the commercial and military style and the pin is numbered.

When it comes down to it, I believe that the "rules" were not always adhered to(gripstrap markings are another example of this).

Just my own opinion, offere entirely for what it is worth.
