1941 Eagle L

Gentlemen,
I have not posted on Luger Forum for some time. I have this Russian (or somebody) refinished P 08. It came with plastic grips, I had Hugh make some nice ones for me back in '02 or so. It also has had some marking peened over. Why do you suppose they did that? (and what was there before?) I would appreciate any comments or observations.

Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

Welcome back to the Forum.

The obilterated mark is most likely an East German Police rework acceptance mark. What are the markings on the bottom of the barrel?
