Bruce,
I have been tied up with other things and have been away from this thread for a while. The other members have given you great information and there is little I could add. Your Luger is one of the Bannerman purchase guns and therefore is unquestionably a test trials piece. It is not unusual for a Test Luger to have mismatched parts. Some were cannibalized, either by the Army to keep the guns in service or by Bannerman to make them functional for resale. Your Luger is in very nice condition and from what I can tell from the photos probably has not been refinished.

Either my memory is faulty or some of the foregoing thread has been deleted or edited. I seem to remember that you were also going to be recieving a holster at a later date. It will be interesting to see what it turns out to be. If an original Test holste it is quite valuable as surviving examples are rare. If I am remembering correctly and if the holster looks like the one below, pictures of it will be greatly appreciated.
