Hi Bob, In my opinion, this K-Date is early enough to have the "S" stamped on the trigger plate.
I own 3412 and 6101 and they both have the "S" stamp trigger plate.
Later versions are marked like all other Military Mauser Lugers, see page 26 of Still's "Third Reich Lugers". These higher serial numbered K-Dates do not have the "S" stamp on any of the small parts (only the center toggle link).
While the K-Date appears to be a nice pistol, it has been messed with, IMHO!! Run away from this one. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
