And they had a healthy refurbishing scheme as well.

The Swiss army has an interesting conscription system. People who do military service keep their service guns in their home, together with a can of sealed ammunition for wartime / mobilization emergencies.

When their service was over, pistols could be bought by them. These pistols were privatized by striking a P. in front of the serial number.
