avadski Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Nice one. How much does it weight? The frame looks like an aluminum 3rd reich era piece on the other hand the core seems to be 'heavy' WW1 iron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriztofer Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Beautiful, minty EK2 you have there Eric. It is LW, look at the space between the top of the L & the top of the W, to accommodate horizontal part of L. On IW marked crosses this space is very small between the two letters. I would also say that it isn't a TR era piece due to the MM. I believe most TR replacements pieces, in schinkel form, were unmarked or had a number. I've darkened the contrast of your photo a little and you can see the L better and paired it with an IW MM (Iohann Wagner) for comparison Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontkampfer Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 :jumping: Hello gents !! That's right for me it's a LW mark ! Here's one of mine ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve campbell Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Looks like LW to me, a known mark. This is not a TR era piece. I believe the frame has been cleaned or polished, giving it the look of the TR era "new silver" frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
