Indeed. The symbols denote a special steel and have no relation to Nazi Germany. I know a guy that overpaid for one sold as a Nazi seized weapon. He was annoyed to find he was duped.

The swastika was used by many cultures prior to being stained, perhaps forever, by the Nazis. If you look at the tile decorations on 1930s period US post offices, you will often see it incorporated in the designs. Common in Mexican and Southwest native American ceramics. A National symbol of Finland. It once had very POSITIVE connotations.

My Husqvarna model 103 CS hammergun made in 1912 has these marks. They are a steel quality mark that they stopped using around WWII.

Take care,

Mike
