This particular Luger ,1939 Banner with C/U proof, SN 8228v falls into the Swiss and Commercial contract range. According to Jan Still's "Third Reich Lugers" there were only 60 produced. This information may be dated, since he published T.R.L. other information may have surfaced.

Joop van de Kant has been doing extensive studies of the Mauser Lugers for a new book he is working on. He could give you more details. He can be reached through Jan Still's Central Powers Pistols forum. Do a search under his full name.
