I think that goes back too "if this rifle could talk." But yes every collector out there would love to know where their rifle served in the war. And capture papers kind of bring up a idea where your rifle could have been. Say you had a early Erma made rifle like yours and it was captured by an GI in North Africa. That rifle could have been at the Battle of El Alamein, Tobruk, Halfaya Pass to name a few. But in the end you basically have a rifle that was made by this manufacturer and it served somewhere in North Africa. And maybe it was used by the Infantry or it spent its time guarding a guard post at a gate somewhere. So many possibles. But one rifle I wish I could have bought because this brings it up. It was sold on gunbroker a few years ago. And it was brought back by a Navy Seebee from Normandy. What made that piece interesting is the Vet had pictures of this rifle on the ship, from the capture pile, with his bunk mates, him with the rifle, plus his Navy identification card. Never knew what it sold for though but it was the history that I loved with that piece.
