A friend of mine showed me a Krieghoff which he bought as a DDR Luger, under the barrel lug among other markings, there is the word KOTT stamped, does anybody know what it stands for please?

I don't find "KOTT" as a DDR abbreviation or marking. I am unfamiliar with that marking.

To tell you the truth, it was on two differnt Lugers in the same place.

West-German Import marking. Probably Kett for Kettner, a German reseller.

Vlim, I can't see your last reply on the forum, but I got it in my email notification.
Yes I think so also, it was on two Lugers in the same place.

Gentlemen:

Frankly, this word reminds me more of the accuracy level I have obtained with my two P-38s.

Lol. A P38 shoots like lightning. Never hits the same place twice

(now I'm gonna hide for the P38 guys)

A Bundeswehr Major told me that the talk among the troups was the following:
