They have done it a lot to inflate the value and to brag between bottles of Ouzo:-))
Hi Ariel.
At the moment, I think this is just a spurious group of English style letters with a non-existant name to add a perceived value to the gun. Except for one upside down "A", the so called name reads the same wheather read from the left or right side of the gun. And the letters appear to be stamped rather than engraved. Strange. Never seen one marked like this.
Rick.
