Just because they received a sear or mag safety DOES not make them a rework. That is an old myth that is incorrrect. Not to say some weren't but MANY were not.
They were more likely forced to be reworked when the mag safety was taken off.
The weird numbering is seen every now and then; they were requried to marked them with the last 3 numbers when there was another luger in inventory that had the last two of the SN. It may be unusual, but not "rare"....
I am not sure that the serial numbers on the mags are force matched....
