Yep, most likely somebody else than a German, and:

And hidden underneath the grips? Come on....
I guess a former owner put this tag underneath the grips to be found exactly there. Where else can you hide a piece of paper? And why hiding? Maybe a gag of the old owner.
And Joe states:
"If my math is right, and this piece of paper was inserted upon manufacturing, it's roughly 70 years old, but doesn't look it." He doubt it, too.
Just my 2 cents.
