Hello Pete,
you can find information about Mauser production under French control (1945-47) in my book at page 91 and 92. August Weiss, Mauser responsible of this production, estimates in 2506 the total amount of Lugers produced in this period. Both P08 and LP08 were produced. In my book I have written the history of this production and also the use done by Franch Army and Gendarmerie. Let me know if you need more help.
Ciao
Mauro
