Note also that this is one of the 1917 broken die Erfurts. Proof that it is in fact a 1917. Not a whole lot of these to be seen. The 'm' suffix (prefix) is of interest too.

It looks like the actual frame suffix is k . The number font on the barrel numbers, the roman lower-case m (not the gun's suffix!), and the lack of a witness mark are interesting. It would be useful to know if there is a step-ring in the chamber.
This is a very interesting holster as well. Absent a photograph, what is the text of the stamp in the middle of the back? Can anyone here identify what looks like it is probably a proof mark on the toe of the holster back? --Dwight |

I am told this is a dancing bear emblem of the manufacturer from Berlin?
