John...the Story that was told to me about this gun was exactly as you mentioned....apparently the prisoners own arms were turned on them by the Canadians(including this Luger and a p38 from the same owner).....the only flaw in the Story is the date on the holster??? I will try and find out which unit he was in.....Frank....I am just showing the gun as I purchased it...the n suffix was the last batch before byf 41s....I can verify the Guns History since 1945.... and I find it interesting and appreciate the discussion about it...perhaps the Factory tried numbering the mags and it did'nt work too well!!??....59 Years ago today, a lot of young men on both sides gave their lives in that Titanic struggle...Thank God that now we live in a time of relative peace and security!!!....as Arms enthusiasts(especially Lugers)....it sure is nice now to be able to play with and discuss these things without actually having to use them...or have them used against us.....Peter..(my 2 cents worth)
