It is a MODEL 1900, however if it is sn 128, I would expect that it was made in 1900. You have one of the first ones made, as there was a swiss contract and a commercial contract, so I can't say yours was the 128th made but close. "I don't like how the #128 looks" but I have only seen a few 3 digits.

It is obviously a commercial gun, because that is how they were sold.

You can buy a firing pin from someone, maybe Tom Heller, or on gunbroker.

Its a German Luger, and all were made in Germany (the swiss later made some too).
