Hello,
I have this little ‘44 dated Czech DUO pistol rig. I noticed a number oddly stamped on the front grip strap and do not know what it is. It’s been applied after the bluing. Proofing number like earlier DUO pistols had off and on? Those were on the slide at the lion/date stamp. It’s not the serial number to the gun. It doesn’t appear to be a GI service number or part of a service number…..so, I come to the experts. What do you suppose the number is?
Neat little rig. In the holster the capturing GI left his written information. I know that there is no way to positively link the holster to the pistol as the rig could be a “put together”, or may have all came to the U.S. like this; just no affirmative link connecting it all together (right now anyway).
I just received the rig, so some may recognize the photos.
