I have hopefully a plain question for your site. I have a 1940 code 42 Luger. All SN match except the magazine( yea I know kind of common). My question is my SN shows as 269 with the standard 69 on all other parts should this not be a 4 digit number minimum? The serial number has no alfa character with it as well. It does have what looks to be a cursive style C slightly below the SN and centered below it. It does have the standard military marking with the 655 on it. The 269 serial number really throws me since it is only three numbers and not four.

If you need more detail please just ask. If you could also point me in a direction of how I could authenticate this Luger I would be grateful

Any information would be helpful.

I am trying to upload a picture so you might beable to help more.
