It seems to me that those kinds of markings have one thing in common - people can accept them or not have the guns. There are, as mentioned, exceptions to every rule, but most of us either don't know of them or can't practically use them.

A pristine, 100%, all factory gun is nice to have, but if an affordable Luger (or any other gun) has an import or proof mark, and one without is unavailable or unaffordable, I for one will opt for the marked Luger over no Luger. Further, I would probably choose an otherwise 99-100% Luger with an import mark over an identical 60% gun without.

Now, if I hit the lottery....
