Pacific Arms barrels were made for the mass market, this necessitated that the rear sight be such that the back of the rear sight rest on the barrel flange and not the receiver as many lugers did not have the notch.

Your barrel shows this feature, please take a very close look for anything that might tie it to Pacific Arms. It's not likely you will find any markings but it's worth looking for.

One of the features of the PA barrels is that they were made for interchangeability.

Thanks
