Default E/N found on front sight

I'm currious to learn more about this type of marking, but didn't want to hijack an excisting thread about it..

(http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthre...threadid=17490 )

Pete have it on a swiss Mauser banner Luger, also on this police Mauser banner Luger (wich I stole the picture below from). Is this a typical mark found on Mauser banner pistols?

Steinar,

My apologies for being lazy and not posting up my photo, in the other discussion.

Here it is...barrel is 7,6 mm (as a Swiss gun...) and the muzzle end is polished and not blued.

That's ok Pete, I forgive you for now
..it looks like the same birdie, the 7.65mm barrel makes more room for it.

One month ago, I sold the police Mauser luger on the picture below;

Thinking it was just a police marking.. I didn't gave it much tought. Untill you guys came up with your e/N marking.
I also notice now, that that Luger where blued in the muzzle.. can't remember the date, but I think it was a 41

Steinar,
To answer your question, yes that is a standard proof found on the front sight of Mauser Police Banner Pistols manufactured after April 1940.
