Good one Ron. Sometimes the inspector marking in this area can be several digits &/or letters. I do not believe that the circled AK is an inspector's marking. Rather, some later modification or rebarrel of the luger. This may have been done on the underside of the manufacture's logo to free them from any further liability, under the laws of whatever country this was done in. (eg. Spain by Alkartasuna? as this was the same way that the French maked AKs Rubies in WW1).
