LugerForum Discussion Forums - View Single Post - What should I offer for S/42 1939 luger (UPDATED)

I am not sure since I don't have my reference books with me, but didn't the change from "S/42" to "42" concealment code take place in 1939 (April)?

If that is true, either the toggle is mismatched, or it's something rather rare...

If it's a mismatch, I'd be careful with this dealer since it may have been mis-represented.

His price for a 90% Luger seems quite high to me. If it's all correct, and not rather rare it should be in the $1500-$1600 range at most.
