It looks to be a legitimate 1941 dated Code 42 Mauser Luger with a matching magazine. There were only about 7,000 of them made and many seemed to have disappeared in Russia. It's well worn and although I can't read the inscriptions on the bottom of the barrel clearly, it looks to have the original serial number and there appear to be capture markings forward of the serial number. It's a relatively rare wartime Luger and not necessarily a "shooter".
