It's a 1938 production, made by Mauser as indicated by the S/42 code on the toggle. Approximately 113,800 were produced in serial range 400b-4500n. A fairly common variation and year, but no one knows how many have survived intact.

If you should decide to shoot it. Use only standard velocity ammo, such as Winchester(white box)or S&B. DO NOT use Cor-bon or +P, it will damage the Luger.
