ALSO, that guns imported prior to 1968 would not have import markings.
After WW2 it seems you don't see used lugers being required to have made by Germany stamped on them, so there were tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands lugers, P38's, rifles, etc, sold by importers in the USA. Those magazine ads can still be seen where for $28 you can get a luger, $35 for a complete artillery (or close to that amount).
