These are found in addition to the c/n on the left receiver and underneath the barrel. Occasionally they are found on the right receiver of repaired surplus P08s."

Perhaps I should have quoted the entire two sentences, but I thought I had the jist of it.

I realize this is not a commercial luger rebarreled to 9mm, but it surely seems to be the same partial Crown over G.

Wrong?

I started this thread on the other forum, because I can never remember where I am!
