The "1920" markings on the the LPO8 receiver and stock just indicate that they were part of the 100K small arms allowed to the German military under Versailles Tready restrictions. TH

Tom, I wondered if they did anything else other that applying the stamp. For example parts replacement or repairs that may result in mismatched proofs or serial numbers~ Were they all matching? Eric

Eric, If all the parts of your LPO8 are matching, it's probable that it was just marked "1920" without any rework. Although it's difficult to say for sure without seeing the markings on each and every part. Tom
