Tim, you are doing fine. I did move the thread from the help / feedback forum, to the New Collectors area. Welcome to the forum!

It looks like you have a weimar era commercial luger. Do you know if it is 9mm or 7.65mm?

The reasons it is a called alphabet luger ;

1. The import export stamp that says Germany
2. The crown N on the left
3. SN range
4. no date on the receiver

There are two possibilities, it was made for the military an then was exported, or it was a ww1 / parts and put together, scrubbed and reproofed before shipping.

Can we have full right side and a few other pictures, such as closer of the left markings and right markings if any.

PS barrel looks normal size to me. Take a pencil, drop down the barrel with action closed, , mark it, measure what was inside. I bet it is 3 5/8ths or 4 inches. But the 3 3/4 is also possible, escpecially for a commerical meant piece.
