Hi Rhidian,

A perfectly fine original, very nice. I love the worn look of it with the copper showing through, excellent!

Cheers Tom, it looks even nicer in hand so I'm glad I bought it.

Agreed, this is a rare and beautiful example. (Militaria Berlin asks 350€ for these...)

Very nice original GAB. I think this maker is still unknown. Frank claaims in his book that all GAB's by this maker having a c-hook which opens to the left but that's only theory I guess.

Welcome to the club (if you weren't in it already). This type is my favorite GAB and is the pinnacle of a GAB collection IMO.
