Luger 42 (1940) Information Please

Mine has wood grips with some dents and stuff but is the same era pistol.
I love it.
Mine is a shooter (I shoot it a lot) and it is extremely accurate and 100% reliable. I have had NO MALFUNCTIONS of any kind, and the accuracy is better than a Woodsman Match or S and W 41 .22 using Gecco hardball ammunition!
The bore is an eyesore--extremely pitted--but the man before me shot the pistol a lot in competition and such (and now has cancer). I got a holster too from the same period with the pistol.
All I can say is that I like my only Luger and once had desires to get another; but no more. Why? It is perfect except for the ugly bore (that still shoots straight).
