Ed,
Yep, and not from an Erfurt. No inspector mark on the base, full (not flat) diamond checking on follower button. --Dwight |

Ed,
The checkering on the follower button seems to be "pointed diamonds"...on most Erfurt mag's I have seen and own, the checkering is flat...and look like flat squares...no points. |

Thanks Pete, I have seen a few examples of mags and followers, I believe you did one a while back.
Might be something I gather over the next couple of months.... But if anyone wants to start this, say, take pictures of each side and then the base and a description of what they believe it is; I'll gather it all together... I'd like to see pictures of : DWM commerical mags pre-WW1 DWM Military WW1 Erfurt Military WW1 DWM Commerical post WW1 DWM post WW1 military and/or police Simson Mauser Krieghoff Commerical Krieghoff Military (is there a difference? ?? I'd add it to the FAQ I made, and it would make sense to have 3 to 5 of EACH one, so there is a good represenitive showing. Ed |

Ed,
My "Pete's Erfurt Magazine Study" with excellent photos is in the Member Gallery on page 5...you are more than welcomed to gather up photos from there... I also did a M1929 Swiss Bern magazine posting in the Swiss section, back in 9-12-2004 titled "M1929 Swiss Bern Magazine Question"...with lots of photos in that thread. I also just recently posted some Bern '24 wooden magazine photos on 10-15-2005 in a thread titled "Bern Wooden Magazines". |
