Thanks, Richard!!

...So that would imply that at some stage the gun was exported to Austria, possibly afterthe war, then!?

As to the VOH mark, I got a suggestion from the wife of a friend of mine.
She does not know anything about Lugers, but she is German , born in East Berlin.
When I told the lady that we know about VOPO Lugers , where VOPO stands for Volks Polizei, she suggested that VOH may well stand for Volks Heer (ie: The People's Army, in Post WWII Eastern Germany).
This would make sense to me....what do you think?

Thanks again foy your help with the NP mark.

Ciao!

Marco
