Hi Doc, there were a few 1937 Mauser Lugers that had strawed parts AND a Mauser Hump!! As you know, the 1937 Strawed Part Lugers ended in the very early T-Block. These unusual Hump/Strawed 1937s are usually found in the late S-Block and Early T-Block. It was thought to have been caused by the use of the later frame, but before the Germans went to the Hot Dip Blue Process.

These are considered an odd-ball variation, albeit a genuine one!!
