Thanks for the information.
I wasn't sure about the side plate inside number because of what I read on this forum about the inside number being one higher then the first digit of the serial number. I thought possibly it should be 2. </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">* In the essentially 4 digit numbering scheme Mauser used, your pistol is numbered "0017y". Rule after 1939 is 1 higher than the first two digits. So "00 + 1 = 1".
* I believe this applied to all single & two digit pistols (numbered below 100).

Definitely helps.
Happy Holidays,
