These are a field in themselves. Versions I have:
1916, 1918
1916 Bavarian unit marked
1916, 1918, P.08 conversions
1916, 1918, 1920 accepted
1916,1918 EWB

1914 Romanian, probably Austrian used, P.08 conversions are known. There are also post-WW1 Czech accepted P.08 conversions.
Both 1916 and 1918 P.08 conversions also show up with post- WW2 Austrian police unit markings There are likely Czech accepted P.08 conversions with post-WW2 austrian police markings but so far I haven't seen or heard of one.

Craig, You are correct they are a field in themselves, I have Austrian, P-08 conversions and Chilean, I have never found a decent Romanian or a box of Romanian ammo...BILL
