Another consideration is the original serial number on the barrel/barrel extension, and the serial number range in which it falls.

Alas, C96 collectors generally have to deal with more ambiguity than do Luger collectors.
118,xxx is well within the "Red 9" serial number range; as is 133,yyy;
why is this a consideration?
