I will post these partial markings again because they ars not to clear.
First line in an arch: DEFERUN or ULFERUN
Second line: SATTLER
Third line: NURNBERG
Below: 1918
Off to right: 37 The stamp was made with line one in a half circle and the other lines flat to form an overall half circle.The pull up strap hits right on the logo when holster is closed.
Thanks again
Jerry,
I think Klaus Merzbach should be credited and referenced as the author of the list of holster makers that I sent you. The list consists of an impressive number of holster makers (228 !!!) that Klaus compiled during 10 years of observations, and I have found/added only a couple new makers. His list was published in Auto Mag ,volume 29, page 277 March 1997.
Regds, John
John, Yes, that is correct. Klaus Merzbach is on the heading as the originator, accumulator of the list. I apologize for the oversight. Whenever the list appears so does his name. In my hurry I forgot to mention this and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention.
I must also mention that John was kind enough to provide me with this list many months ago. I am assuming this is not copyrighted material as no mention of it is made on the copy's I have? Please correct me John if I am mistaken. Thanks, Jerry Burney
Jerry,
A very pertinent point that you raised. I understand that making a simple copy of an automag article is not a problem. Actual publication that article however would require formal permission and of course reference to original source.
