RK, I think that my post may have mislead some. The Death Head is definitely associated with the SS, all of their hats had the totenkoph on them and it appeared on other items. In my previous post I intended to related that I have never seen a reference that the Lugers with the death head stamping were associated with the SS. The markings usually associated with SS Lugers are the SS runes alone or within an octagon found on the left frame panel, abover the chamber date and on the right reciever of some DWN and Mausers from 1934 to 45. I hope this is a little more explanitory of what my intent was.
