Hi Bill, the straw parts disappeared from the Military Mausers in mid 1937, somewhere in the T-Block. So if the 1940 is a Military Mauser, it has been altered.

However, Krieghoff Lugers had strawed parts, I believe, throught out the production.

So more information would be necessary to tell you if the pistol was legit or not!!
