I have a 1912 Imperial Luger with the following front grip strap markings:
11.A.F.3.H.7 From Jeff Noll's book it appears that this means: Fuss-Artillerie-Regiment 11, Munitionskolonne 3, Waffe Nr. 7 Presume "Fuss-Artillerie" is Foot Artillery . . . not sure what foot artillery function is. Have no idea what Munitionskolonne means. Would appreciate any help on this. Thanks,

This explains it pretty well,
http://www.landships.freeservers.com/21cm_howitzer.htm My understanding of "munitions kolonie" is the ammunitition train for the referenced guns. This would fit in the use of the Luger as a support unit weapon. (Here's another interesting site, has all the German military abbreviations) http://miniatures.de/html/ger/nomenclatureG.html rk |
