Luger Longevity!!

It amazes me just how many lugers survived, some in good condition. Where there more lugers than men? Were worn out parts replaced in the trench? What part or parts need replacing the most! What common repair parts where easily available! Were they scavenged from the fallen? Which models lasted the longest? One final, what was the actual process on unit marking. At what phase were the applied? Did each unit have their arms so marked and in what number. Why were most left unmarked? Has this data ever get recorded? Were other Germans firearms so marked ie Walther P38s. When did unit marking cease. Tks Eric
