Default Frame and Barrel Markings 48-2

These markings are on a 48-2. Any idea where they came from? Don't know if the gun has been imported.

Yes, those are import proof marks, but I don't know from where. Someone else will be along who knows.

I believe it is Ulm. Germany. Let me check a little deeper.

The German eagle with N= standard proof w/smokeless powder.
