Sir, Your PO8 started life as a WW1 military issue, without any "Germany' marking. After the war, it was sold as surplus to the American market and probably "country of origin" marked by Stoeger or who ever was the importer. TH PS" Probably marked before 1923, when the US law was changed to also require "made in xxxx".
