I have no explanation to forward on the subject of mums on Lugers, nor do I even have a theory. However, it seems to me that anyone skilled and talented enough to place these markings on a Luger had a world of possibilities if he desired to create a fake collector piece. Why pick the mum and not the Italian R.E. (Reggio Ejercito)? Or how about the French Fleur d'Lis, And why did he mark more than one Luger?
