Anti-Rotation Question Correction

[Stahlhelm]

I just realized that I left out a very important word in my initial question about anti-rotation pins on EK1's. The word I forgot to include is "screwback."

So, the question should have been this:

Do all original WWII EK1 screwbacks have an anti-rotation pin?

Thanks again,

Chris

Hi Chris, no, not all had this feature. I have a 1914 EK 1 (But made during the Third Reich) which lacks this feature.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks, Ade!

I asked, because I have a WWII 1939 EK1 screwback, with no anti-rotation pin. I just recently began to wonder if the lack of that feature perse had anything to do with originality.

Thanks for the fast answer and the picture!

Hi Chris,
No pin? I hope it's not a L21

Hi Chet,

Mine is not an L21. Mine is unmarked.

Thanks,
