Mine is also a 1939, but an S/42, meaning it was manufactured earlier than yours, before the change to "42" code stamp. Both of my grips have a "55" stamped into them, right around the spot where the "2" is on your right grip and the "QL" is on your left, so the carving may have obliterated. As I mentioned, I don't know that this does anything terrible from a value perspective (someone else would have to speak to that), but the fact that everything else is matching, including a mag, and the overall condition, gives you a gun that I'm guessing many in the forum would be more than happy to own.
