Bannerman question?

"Banner" refers to the Mauser logo (flag) on the toggle of certain late Lugers which show that they were openly made by Mauser.
"Bannerman" was an arms buyer (I think) who purchased a certain large group of 1900 model Lugers which had been formerly used in the US Gov't test in the early 1900's. There are records of the specific serial numbers of the guns purchased by Bannerman.
No relation.
