Gentlemen,
I have discovered and purchased another 00 series cyq, I believe that a member of this forum had indicated this series of Spreewerk pistols were made by order of the Russians who captured the plant.

My observation is that the locking lock on his pistol is proof marked e/s which means it was accepted for smokeless powder during WWII.

Sorry about the bad photo but the marking is there. My other two 00 series do not have the proof mark, see my web site http:/www.p38guns.com.
What does this mean? My other two guns are not proof marked and the block is not reworked. I have only seen my three guns, with so few guns known to exist does anyone else have an e/s proof marked 00 series?
I am in a constant debate about the AC frame marked guns with other collectors because they are also Nazi proof marked .... but that is another topic for a future posting.
