Hello,
I have a 1916 C.G Haenel Suhl Gew 98. It has an intertwined "BS" marking on it and I was wondering if anyone here has seen this before or know what it means. My search on the net has come up with nothing and everyone I talked to said it's related to Berlin-Suhler Waffenfabrik or apparently it's exact meaning is not known or suspected to come from the depot at Berlin-Spandau, or possibly designating a unit or group of some sort. Any help clarifying is really appreciated, thanks.
