Hello Chevis!

If you are familiar with stamps/application then you should be suspicious of the frame serial. I have two commercial Lugers plus one Army-issue; all have symmetrical numerals. No "added-on-later" look. The '8' in your serial does not look original...My two commercials are a 4-digit and a 5-digit. The serials are centered on the frame.

You didn't mention caliber...is it 7.65mm or 9mm???
