Edged Weapon RZM Codes

The Reichzeugmeisterei der NSDAP was responsible for setting standards and controlled all aspects of the manufacture, wholesaling, and retailing of all articles used by the members of the NSDAP and it's associated organizations. The RZM was established in 1934 and was fully operational by 1936. M7 codes were assigned to Edged Weapon makers, M7h codes were assigned to sub-contractors performing specialized work in connection with the manufacture of edged weapons for M7 permit holders.
