I will add my TK to this discussion, as it is very similar to Jared's, except the rune is much less prominent. The fact that my TK also has numerous Nitro proofs indicate both went to the commercial market after the war. My TK is matched with a 1916 holster which is also serial numbered to the gun. It is a 1918 Erfurt. The holster also has a very faint TH stamped on the front of the holster. The Luger is also Nazi police due to Safety seer alteration.
-Did the holster come with the gun during the war, or were they matched up after the war? If after the war, I suspect they were Freikorps applied. If they were matched during the war, then flamethrower or storm troop unit origin is possible.
- The unit marking on the front trigger guard is eastern European origin I believe, either Czeck unit or one in Poland of the Algemeine SS type. The trigger guard is stamped S.R.C. 43. If desired I will post photos of this trigger guard.
Could these TKs have been stamped in 1960? Yes, but the holster TK is very faint and I believe to be WWI or Freikorps period.
