Kaiserslautern marking

R.J. DeCook · 12-17-2003, 02:04 AM

I just recently bought my first luger out of an estate sale. I have been trying to research the markings, and have identified most on the gun. However, there is a marking on the top of the barrel that reads "Waffen Dinger Kaiserslautern". I haven't been able to determine what this means. Any help educating me would be greatly appreciated. It is dated 1938, and has only a "42" on top.
I'll try to post a few pictures for you all to further educate me on what I have exactly.
By the way, this is an excellent forum you guys have developed!
