Johnny Peppers, thanks for the Mauser information. I was aware of the serial numbers/suffix letters spanning the years but not certain that "K" date Lugers began at serial number 1. It appears that a 10000 "K" date without suffix letter would be correct. That makes two known Mauser Lugers with a 10000 serial number.
Leon DeSpain, thank you for your response. If Warren Buxton is satisfied that your cyq is correct, that's authoritative enough for me. I didn't know that Spreewerks' early production was that well finished so I learned a couple of things today.
