Did you get a chance to check the manufacturing date for this serial number yet?

Model 1910 Pistol / Re: Transitional Model 1910 - Lots of Pictures and Questions
« on: November 14, 2017, 03:07:47 AM »
More Questions:
- When was this gun manufactured? (Everyone has to ask this one!)
- What is the meaning of the engraving “R. Bödecker Hamburg.”? Is this a personal name? A sales agent name? A police agency name?
- Is this the correct magazine for this gun? It is a VERY tight fit. But, it activates/releases slide hold-open correctly.
- Gun fires but will not extract cases. Cases get stuck in barrel about half-way out; must be driven out with dowel. Is magazine possibly blocking cases from extraction? Is there some other cause for stuck cases? Anyone else have similar problem?
