John, the 6" or Navy Luger barrels are 120mm (6"+-) nominally and that is measured to the breechface from the muzzle. Any object that can be placed down the barrel without scratching the bore, with the gun safe and unloaded of course, can be used to measure the actual barrel length.
Your Luger looks to be an Imperial (WWI) DWM or Erfurt that was rebarrelled at some time in its history. Is the chambered dated? Does it have a Crown over N on the left side of the receiver in front of the side plate? I also appears to have been highly polished at some point. Interesting grips (the gold colored ones)
