it is on the test lugers that the USA tried in the early 1900's

addendum--

So, it is specifically on the 1,000 that were used by the army for several years, then decided against and eventually sold to Bannerman - although newer information reveals that besides the Bannerman purchase, some were given as gifts, bought by a few officers, some kept for museum display (or are now) and at least one other company bought a few for re-sale.
