Awesome, look at the M and W in same font you sent and then look at letter on the gun. There is a gap or the first stroke is shorter. Anyway. Also in some of the W's is fonts you added to updated post have breaks along the top like you would expect to see with a W, but they don't exist on the gun letter. I know its confusing because some of the W's are all closed but the only difference between the M and W is that little break under the first line of letter.

Oh well. I now know more or less about German lettering than I ever thought I would know. It only matters if Kensal wants to chase W's or M's. I swear I keep looking and comparing and contrasting between letters it and it appears clearly to me. I guess this is what scholars trying to decode ancient language, hieroglyphics and text go through.
