Probably none if it is handscratched it might just be the town of the GI who picked up the luger. I would not feel the gun was devalued. Each GI marked his souveniers his way, usually with his service number scratched visibly on the surface of the holster. The GI who got your luger was careful not to mar his prize.

If the grips are post-war Franzites or the like--it would affect the value.

Just my opinion--sounds like a great piece.
