bergspyder Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Posted May 11, 2011 Sorry new to this forum thing...thought there might be more information in the seven symbol markings as to where it was made and what the arsenal stamp represented...but it is great that the markings and signature seem genuine...it seems pretty well constructed for a late war specimen...only missing the loop for the sword tassel and the tassel...thanks for the replies and the help with the message board rules....
