"a kinda Mauser Guy"...wow, that's an understatement!

Didn't know about the "S" on a K-Date. Another thing to look for when evauating authenticity. Thanks.

Those early K's have Ss even on the top of the front sight blade, mag release, ejector and trigger. Ss everywhere!! Some have even been known to shoot blue pencils! World of Lugers by Constanzo shows on page 321 Eagle over 6 Simson proofing possible as well as a smaller Eagle over 6 and the K and Erfurt marking that Ron Wood mentioned. A great book!!
