Krieghoff Rework

Walt NW, and Big Norm;

Thanks for both of your post, particularly the pictures Walt posted of his lazy crown/N police rework. I will try to get pictures of the proofs on the gun in question for comparison.

One point I am trying to clear up is wether manufactures or rework shops other than Krieghoff used the lazy crown/N. Both yes and no have been suggested in the discussions about this gun. Anyone have definitive or at least compelling documentation one way or the other?

I did send a PM to John D before I posted on the forum, but I assume he is very busy as usual, and has not responded. I would be very interested in his opinion.

The other caveat I have gleaned from the discussions here are that even if this proves to be a Krieghoff rework, the forum members don't see this as a grounds for value above that of other early 20's commercial reworks. I am sure this will surprise the current owner. I think he feels he has a very valuable piece.

Thanks to all who have responded.
Bob M.
