Correction, Mike - it cannot be a 'Russian Commercial' when the serial range is of a contract range.

Using your thought of 'just using up available frames', would your business/company make a careless mistake and send merchandise to a foreign country with the text being in an incorrect language? For example, if DWM 'just wanted to use up available frames', why not send the US Test Lugers with 'Germany' stamped on the frame? What difference does it make to the Americans?
