Gerben and Mauro,

Thank you very much for your input. I suspect that the IMKK may have turned a "blind eye" to the possession of LP08s by the Landj�¤gerei, particularly if they were counted as both pistols and carbines. There is other documentation indicating the Landj�¤gerei was rearmed with Kar 98a's in 1928 and this may have allowed them to exchange P08s for LP08s in 1929.
