Do you know the source of this gun? Was it a WW2 souvenier? or something sold after the war? Is it now in collector hands? I didn't know that France permitted machinepistole collectibles...

MW? could really be anything? Mauser Werke?

Manhurin? I don't know that the W would stand for Werke or works in France...

Anyone else seen this mark before?

I suppose it could also be the mark of a post war arms dealer company...
