Zeke,

If I am not mistaken, after 1968...all surplus military arms coming into the USA from anywhere outside the States are supposed to be import stamped "visibly" on the gun.

There is some debate as to what "visible" implies. I have seen a few lugers were the importer stamps are boldly done in good sized fonts underneath the wooden grips. Argument there is that they are still visible.

If a seller and an importer do not do so, that is another matter...
