Ron, It's a secret German code. I decipher it this way: Send it to Jerry as a gift.....Or I guess it could mean something more interesting...Jerry Burney

I picked up a 1914 DWM unit marked Luger today. "99.R.M.G.38."
I know what the unit mark is, 99th Inf Regiment Machine Gun weapon # 38. The Luger is pitted along both sides of the barrel. And has been cold blued.
My question pertains to the holster markings. Inside the flap is die stamped into the leather vertically To the left of the tool pouch.

The I is half again larger than the other numbers and letters. The holster is in very good cond. Cannot find a makers mark nor date. The belt loops have been restitched higher than the original location. Appears to be armorer repaired.(Old Repair).
Can anyone enlighten me on the markings?
Thanks, Ron

Jerry, Yeah!? I kind of interpret it as a message from the Mother Ship.
You already got all the freebies you're getting from me. One damn fine paper bicycle/toolbag/whatever.
Are you all packed for Arizona? You're probably letting that sweetie of a wife do all. Ain'tcha? While you're dinkin" around on the computer! Should be ashamed a yerself.
Drive Safe!! Ron

Jerry, I was thinking that maybe Jan and I could rent a safety deposit box halfway between Oregon and Alaska, and just have visitations. Then it occured to me that Tinker lived in Washington. Guess who would end up with both of them. I'd rather boil the holster and eat it, than see that happen.
Somebody wake Ed up so he'll be insulted.

Jerry, I'll have to get back to Colorado soon to visit some of my long lost relatives. I could swing by Ed's and case the...I mean pay a visit. As far as hitting him with anything. I don't know, Ed's a pretty big boy, and a Lifer MP. I'm too old and gimpy to run that fast.
Grizzly Adams said that he always had an Indian with him, when he hunted Grizzly bears. If he just wounded the bear and it started chasing them. He wound just trip the Indian and climb a tree. Jerry, I'll take you with me when I decide to hit Ed with an ugly stick.
Geo, Thanks, I thought I'd read or heard that someplace. Maybe from you on another post? The pistol is'nt a total toad. May send it to Ted, when I get the bucks.It could use some help.
