    Default EK2, mm unknown, for review/identification

    Hi y'all. I just got this in, the dealer had it down as a '112' which it clearly is not. I think it is '132' and would like to confirm or deny that as a possibility. I don't want to consider the possibility that it is not of pre-1945 origin

    Thanks!

    Yes, a '132', notoriously always poorly stamped.

    Good going Roger.

    The various makers seem to be coming in at a great rate - you'll be attending Nick's EK's Anonymous meetings in no time at all!
