Sergio,
The Gortz & Sturgess encyclopedia states that there are no inspection marks after 91XX. The inspection mark is the funny shaped S on all the K date P.08 parts. If your pistol does not have all the S marks you probably have a 4th sub-variation K date.

Still's "Third Reich Lugers" lists the production of the K date at 10,930. Combine the information from both reference sources indicates there were approximately 800 4th sub-variation K date lugers manufactured. A rare variation.

Ed,
It looks like you cornered the market on K date Lugers. I am impressed.
