I can't make out the other marks on the underside of the left tube. Again, the S in a Chevron is in an odd location. I for one just don't see any Suhl proofmarks. So it must have been cobbled together by a mechanic who had access to a stash of Simson components at the end of WWII. But I still contend that either Edgar Strempel, Otto Reif or both were involved. Cheers, Raimey rse

The Craftsmanship is there but the cult following just isn't for a relatively unknown German Mechanic that hung out his gunmaking shingle in 1920. Difficult to read the Post WWII datecode. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1114644212 Hochachtungsvoll, Raimey rse

This one apparently solves the mystery of the "Epl; Stuttgart" who ordered the first batch of cartridges from DWM. The Goering rifle was ordered to be made by Edgar Strempel, Suhl through Robert Eblen, a gunmaker/dealer at Lange Str., Stuttgart to be presented to H.Goering by a Mr.Truchsess.<< Mr. Truchsess was a wealthy chocolatier...... https://www.doublegunshop.com/forum...ords=strempel&Search=true#Post233900 So this may be the other Vom Hofe that wasn't made by Chr. Funk? Hochachtungsvoll, Raimey rse
