    Opinions on this trench

    US markings seem off to me

    The entire gun is BS. The serial number makes it way too early to be a real trench gun. And the US mark is total bogus.

      That's what I thought. I figured posting it here might save someone from a mistake

        Totally fake. Something interesting: The "W" is on the wrong side of the lug! It is obviously not the original handguard, the attachment method is all wrong, looks spot welded. But the W should be on the left lug, so that has been faked too.

          Over the years this seller has consistently offered up weapons of questionable pedigree and I am amazed that they are still in business.
          "There's a race of men that don't fit in,
          A race that can't stay still;
          So they break the hearts of kith and kin,
          And they roam the world at will." - Robert Service
