a quick search found this

"GECO- was a firearms retailer in Berlin. Gustave Genshow & Company.

Just as many companies made guns for Sears, several makers made guns for GECO. Most commonly, J P Sauer und Sons. But there were others (Simpson is one). Some were made in Germany, some in Belgium.

"
Proof marks should at least identify the country of origin

I did find a current Hungarian company website for MG-STAHL - no way to know its the same company

Stahl translates to steel
