K date Luger how did they come up with a 'K'?

From what I remember there was a chart of certain letters for dates - not just lugers had dates as letters / numbers and then later the 'codes' like S/42 / 42 / byf etc

gov't had things all planned out for the codes / dates

S - Krieg
K - Mauser
G - Mauser
