Hi Dave,
A couple (well actually three) small points:
1/ Imperial Navy Lugers were numbered in the Commercial style, the side-plate was numbered on it's lower edge, not it's face.
2/ The P08 mark on the left side of the frame is only found on P08 Lugers (you know, the kind with 4 inch barrels) dated 1941 or 1942.
3/ Since you have pictured a short frame gun it could only be the 1914 variation, so the chamber should be dated 1916 or 1917, not blank.
Otherwise it's a beautiful job, you could well be proud.
Regards, Norm
