something I did not know

here is an excert from a GA add. I did not know that the suffix was code.

"On the front of the frame under the barrel is the serial number with a small cursive t underneath, which is the WW II ordinance code assigned to Dynamit AG, Troisdorf plant."

Hogwash.

Kunta, I assume that you were kidding, but if not, then Ron's articulate statement is accuarate

This is a seller spouting nonsense they know nothing about..

Many guys bought 1917 or 1918 imperial lugers, with T S S marking on the right side of receiver as nazi stamped lugers...

That is why folks use the smiley buttons, because we can not tell via a posting if a guy is serious, using sarcasm or ??

That is the most rediculous thing I have ever heard. Everybody knows that the "T" suffixed Lugers were made in Tuscaloosa. Who's he trying to kid...

My "hogwash" statement was not directed at Kunta because I was pretty sure he recognized the ad as hyperbole.

Just like you Ron Wood to be so succinct and to the point... a man of few, but important words !
