Hi
During the Franco Prussian a lot of French equipment was taken by the German forces, it is very common to see French Bayonets re marked with German regimental codes in this way and re issued to rear line troops
So it is highly likely the same thing happened with this side arm.
I should have regimental code in a few days
Regards
Ken

Hi Ken,
Don't mean to be pushy but have you had any luck with finding the regiment ?
