Mr. Ebbink
You're absolutely right. The P is not visible. It was in the original resolution, but for the piscure to be admitted Ihad to lower the resolution. Th P is very close to the M.
and you're right also on the top number (it's really 8036). To me it looks as it was striken with a punch from a different set every number. It looks odd, just not to use the word "sloppy job".

And the finishing of the gun is similar to a parkerized. not blued like the rest of the lot I saw. Anyway, my father in law bought as many as he could (3 or 4, I cannot remember) I choose them for him, picked the best mags, with the best lettering visible, including byf and fxo, and that was it.

Years later, he gave me this one for my birthday along with the holster, 2 tools and 3 fxo 37 mags.

And it shoots very well thanks.

A now deceased german gentleman once looked for it in a very old book, and he told me about being a portuguese model (carregada and MP markings)

Thanks for your interest.
