Erfurt Double Date & ?

Paladinpainter · 06-12-2015, 05:47 PM

Hi,

This is a re-worked Erfurt with the standard proofs, also the markings: 2. 6. on the chamber. Any thoughts on their meaning ?

Thanks,
John

I've seen this addressed before and will look for it. Your most immediate concern is a damaged bolt, which has serious chips around the extractor. I trust you are not firing this pistol.

Any Unit markings on the grip strap?

Aha! Thanks. No, no other markings.
I hadnt noticed the chips (feeling stupid). Not shooting it. I'll look more closely. Extra thanks!
