Sdidomen:
Can you pleasure us with some images of the area from the flats forward to the lug and any marks on the water table.
On the sideshoot Belgian sourced French peddled sporting weapon, it was and still is in Russia, and I wonder if it was one of the ones cobbled together in the assortment for reparations. From what I've read, I think the proofhouse officials were trying to do their job possibly even without powder at one point and then with black powder only. I'm sure the Z-M facility was proofing for a time post WWII or someone with the stamps. Many may contend that Z-M was closed and didn't proof post WWII but it is just like those that contend that Suhl did not use a ledger number, when in fact from September 1923 till say April 1924 they did and the marks bear it out just like here. They have propagated an assumption that is incorrect or without fact.
Kind Regards,
Raimey
