Some old Portuguese Luger data in the attached file.
A lot of guessing by a lot of people over the years.
There are not very many M2's listed over 3500 but there are a few as have been noted in this post.
We did a survey here on this form a few years back at that time not one M2 was listed as being over SN 3500.
The old books are largely wrong on the Portuguese data, those new books that simply copy that data are just as wrong.
It's a bit frustrating at times.
Contrary to popular belief the Portuguese often ordered very small batches of lugers. Keep an open mind when discussing serial number ranges.
Hope this helps
