The only unanswered question is that of the English translation. We continue to learn.
At this point, I lean toward the British military trials or British Patent Office submission theories, "Manufactory" being distinctly British English. Yanks would more likely say 'manufacturer', or simply 'mfg.'.
Research could be interesting. Are records of serial numbers available from those sources?
