Hfrey Posted 22 February Share Posted 22 February Trying to figure out what time period this is from cause all of the others that look like this have completely different markings so I’m not sure if it is even from Germany or not. If someone could help me out it would be great! Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites
4thGordons Posted 23 February Share Posted 23 February Manufactured 1907? (07) I would have thought. It certainly looks like a German M 1898 neuer Art (with two piece grip) Real experts will be along shortly! Chris Link to post Share on other sites

Gabelou Posted 24 February Share Posted 24 February To print the last numer 37 the armorer make a mistake in printing a reversed 3. He cancel it by a diagonal 0. A rather scarce vay Link to post Share on other sites

Gabelou Posted 27 February Share Posted 27 February Good question from U Kalicha.. I have no acces for the moment to my documentation but it seems that Landsturm was organised in bataillons. If i well remember, the L for Landsturm is an italic L. Link to post Share on other sites
