Manufacturer/origin of this trigger group?

I got this full auto trigger group for my collection. I was told it was made by Colt for Govt issued M16s and came from U.S. Army surplus. Can anyone confirm this? Maybe anyone can tell from the markings. Those parts are legal in Germany as long as you don’t install them in a rifle. Being full auto they would come from the M16A1 or M4A1 if Army surplus, right?

Looks like they've done quite a number of small parts/spares contracts over the years.

Thank you! So this could come from military surplus? Any idea what the "S" on the selector stands for? I have never seen a marked selector.

probably marked as such so the shooter sees the "S" when the selector is in the Safe position, but then the "S" is not visible when the selector is either in the Semi or the Auto/Burst position; is the opposite side of the selector marked with a letter as well?

Sorry for not getting back earlier, I was out-of country for a while. No, the other sides of the selector are not marked.
