K-98 marking question (HP)

[skeeter4206]

I was checking out this old K-98 mauser on gunbroker and noticed this HP marking on the top. I know that lugers have a HP marking on some representing it was used by the Hesse Police. I was just curious if this marking represents the same thing. If not I was wondering if there was any other firearm that was stamped with the HP marking like the luger. The K-98 didnt look the same style stamping nor did I see a weapon number, so I'm thinking they are not the same. But I just wanted to ask the question as I was curious.
