M5 is a metal uniform fitting designation used by the RZM for political items(SA, SS, etc.) For example, the metal belt hooks on a brownshirt. M=Metal 5=Uniform fitting 142=The manufacturer's code number. The actual designation would have been "M5/142". In the early 40's sometime, they changed this system, and dropped the letter designation. I believe they were trying to copy that system here. I think it is a fantasy item.
