This looks like one of the recent Century Arms (CAI) Luger imports from Russia.

Many of these were re-arsenal processed by the Russians after capture. Since many were missing parts or had mixed parts, the armorers had to individually fit replacement parts. When this was done, the old number was obliterated and the new one electropenciled to match the gun they were fitted to.
