Took in a mix match Luger last night for repair, but what I need to know is what the grip strap marking is "K.2.R.A" THANKS

Howard, does the frame have a stock lug? Can you post some photos?

The gun for the most part is a 1920 DWM commerical, cut down to a 6 shot and very well done, for some reason the bottom half of the frame contains the WW1 unit as mentioned above and no stock lug, it has no collector value, but great work in making it a 3.2" bbl 6 shot......again any help with the unit marking?......I can send you a few pictures if still interested but for the life of me I can't seem to post pictures here.....thanks

Howard, if the grip is a slick-back, as you say, there's a damn good chance it is a cavalry mark for the 2nd Kuerassier Regiment. I will attack the rest of it tomorow.
