1918 erfurt
Picked this up the other day. All matching numbers, including the magazine (with wood base). No import marks.
I also have the original holster, also stamped 1918. I'm pretty sure nothing has been done to it - especially since it didn't have the two parts needed for the trigger to actuate anything - that's been fixed. The inside is clean, with a few rust spots here and there. You can't see it on the pictures, but there is pitting on the outside - the bore seems clean, though. Any thoughts on value, condition? Let me know if you need any additional pictures... |

I can't tell from your photo if the crown on the toggle is all there or faded out. If it is as faded as it looks, I'm guessing older reblue with some buffing. All matching, including mag, with a reblue on an Erfurt I would say is an $800 gun, or so in this condition.

Doug, is this one of those with the light strikes? The rest of it looks good to me, but as he said, a bit rougher, but nice addition to the shelf as far as I am concerned
