Serial # 791 'probably' places it in the third contract issue. Here is what is in the Dutch Luger book. "As less than a dozen Navy Lugers with "KM" marks are known, it is difficult to say whether they were sent to the Indies in series, or whether the mark was just applied to separate guns. Pistols with and without the "KM" mark are kinown form the second Navy Luger contract(serial number 78 to 569, inclusive). A few Lugers with the mark fall in the fifth contract (serial 1485 to 1786 inclusive. As no pistols from the latter serial range have been observed without the "KM" mark, it is possible that all 300 pieces were destined to be sent to the Indies".
The Dutch Marine Lugers fell into 100 to 199 inclusive and 1200 to 1249 inclusive serial number range so it's not a Marine issue just a plain old very rare Navy issue one. There is considerable discussion on the Dutch Lugers here on the forum, here is the link to it..............
