wellllll, it has a better chance, but before 1968, tens of thousands of lugers were imported into the USA.
So, what others said above is true, but here is my 2 cents...
The simple answer is that you have to be a collector to understand, a person who is a shooter or non-collector can not understand WHY importation markings affect value, but it does.
The dipped is for Russian lugers and P38's, they were dipped either before storage or more likely before they were exported to the USA and other countries.
