Scriptic S

[Navy]

Hi Mark,

Sorry for being so late in replying. The "scriptic" S is actually a capital S in "Fractur", a Germanic script that was taught for many years prior to W/W.II. If you do a search on old forum files,you will find much info on the alphabetic system.
There is, how ever, almost nothing known about why Mauser elected to mark parts thusly.
