"Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabrik" ??? Meaning " German Arms and ammunition factory".

I�m not sure, but could this be situated in Berlin ( 1918? )and be the former Waffenfabrik Loewe??

Purely from memory, and I�m not the greatest Mauser expert: guns from 1912 on should be fine. Earlier might be inferior.

Or is this just the ammo plant DWM, long time competitor of RWS ( 1918 - ??? 1950?? ).

Sorry about the vague answer, please write more exactly in what context.

Regards, Hermann

While we're at it, what does the two little dots over a letter do to the pronunciation of a letter? I often see this in German/Scandinavian names and such, and I'm quite curious. - Dan

Difficult to explain without speaking. And I do not know the pronouncing signs.

The normal "u" in german lang. is pronounced like the two "oo" in "loop" in the english lang.
The � is more like the y in "physical" or "hysteria".

Difficult to explain, so I will not continue with the other one. Ask somebody who speaks one of the languages when you speak with him.

Unlike in Romanic languages, the three German Umlaute �/�, �/� and �/� do not have a vocal-dividing trema function. They denote a phonem of its own, which can be long or short.

Example: French "plaisir" -> German "Pl�sier"

Use French to convey a *rough* (!) approximation:
French ai = German � (Warning: German � is mostly longer, and more closed)
French u = German �
French eu = German �
