Finish Marking help

The numbers "match" because several of them have been overstamped to make them match.
Could have been done in Russian custody.

I would expect to see an import mark somewhere on the pistol.

Some of the SNs do look a bit messy and maybe they were re-striked.

I had to spend an extra 20 minutes at my FFL because there was no import mark or model number on the gun. The magazine is marked PO8 but since it wasn’t on the gun they wouldn’t use that. In the end the manager wrote Mauser on the 4473 and sent me on my way.
