buckstix, about your information request to Josef Just - Ferlach Austria, maybe you should make the request in German (or whatever language is spoken there). Seriously, they may not have answered because there were no English speakers handy to translate. Researching the history of the gun is nearly as gratifying as buying the gun, good luck with your search.
