In England at the War & Peace show you can buy these with a whole range of these with different codes on them. One guy had about 50 for sale, they are all fake.....

Cheers, Ade.

I get a Mauser catalog magazine, they sell them in fairly large quantities.

I can think of some weapons which came in from the Ukraine without any German markings on and were sold bearing waffemant markings. Unfortunately you need to be very careful on any german markings.

Well that seals it for me - I used to trust the presence of a waffenamt stamp for originality ......... no more!
