You have an early 29/70 in 9mm as it still has the notched or "Swiss style" front sight blade typically found on the .30 caliber Lugers. MAUSER soon changed the front sight blade to the conventional shape, and that remained on the 9mm pistols until production halted. So you have a good shooter and a nice variation!
