Default Anyone have a Hi Res Erfurt logo

I would like to see if i can get a high resolution image of the Erfurt Toggle logo. I am in the process of building my own CNC Mini engraver/ milling machine, and i would like to engrave a blank toggle with the logo to restore my luger to all matching parts.
Thanks

Austin, just be aware that "restoring" lugers is not like restoring an antique car, the value will not rise a lot, and ensure you tell folks you have restored it if you sell it later

Default Eurfurt logo

Austin, will this work for you?

http://forum.lugerforum.com/lfupload/erfurt_logo.jpg

Photo taken with a cheap Nikon Coolpix 775, a 2.12 Megapixel sweety using the macro setting and a resolution of 640x480 (VGA) setting, just thought I'd throw that in for you 4+ megapixel nuts.

As long as you don't try to pass it off as original. Whatever you do to make your gun the way you want it is ok by me. After all it's yours and you paid for it.

Well i would never try and pass it off as original, but it would be nice to have a "matching" gun. Thanks for the link, I should be able to clean that up nicely
