Markings on magazine

Has anyone seen a marking like this on a magazine before ?

I know itÃ¢??s a re-stamp but the upper proof mark look strange

Sun Burst over letter K or R

It is a Polezi proof.

As Tom said, Weimar Police acceptance.

K is the most common letter, but there are other letters used also.

jamese,

I have sent you a private message.

Thanks,
I found it in my "World of Lugers" book

is it common for the stamp to be on the top also,?

yes, common and correct.

Other Weimar police acceptance letters that I've observed under an asterisk are B, D, K & S. These probably correspond to the inspector's initial, as with the Imperial military initial under a crown. Also the large numeral die set used is typical Weimar police, although the use of the Roman numerals to indicate #1 &2 mags is not seen too often. TH
