Does the fork piece have one or two holes in the sides?

Postwar ones seem to always have two holes at the side, yours has one so that would indicate it is more than likely the real deal...

Thats my opinion to, but a buyer said it was postwar because the plate that the axel is welded on to dont have the right "schwung" between the forks.

Olli,
Any markings on the curved-piece that holds the MG34 (?).......such as "LAGER-34" (?).

..........also, other that the curved-piece......and the two bolts w/washers that hold it to the folk, are there any other pieces (?) (IE: is the curved-piece made of one piece of steel or is it three-piece where it has something like a "bushing" on both ends of the curved-piece (?).

Clear photos of it taken apart (?) ........so that we can see if the curved-piece is one of the reproduction made in Europe......I believe that a Company in the USA (Blitz-Bikes.....?-spelling) was importing reproductions.

Regards, RichardS.
