Not know wat ''OSW'' means but, the ''bwp'' on the right means it is built at BAMAG (Berlin-Anhaltische Maschinenbau AG) in Dessau. barrel serial R3238. Looks the same (a R and 4 digits) as the numbers on modern German tank barrels which are built by Rheinmetal

Hello Michel, I expected Germans to be very precise and put the stamps/markings on the right place with every gun are there any 3-letter codes on the one in Overloon? Maybe it is built at a different location were they had different rules were to put the markings? BTW I have the intention to visit Overloon also this holiday. Regards, Lesley
