Hello,
Concerning the serial number it is important to clarify some points:
1. the commercial numbering is 10.xxxxxx for the .30 Luger and 11.xxxxxx for the 9mm
2. the commemorative numbering is â??lettersâ?001 von 250 up to â??lettersâ?250 von 250. The letter is unique for each commemorative, for example: B for the Bulgarian, LP for Lange Pistole, K for Karabine and so on.
3. The special contract, as the Renato Gamba Italian model, has RG plus digit.
4. Only for the Italian market, in this case for the Bignami importer, Mauser made few LP08s in .30 luger that have the commercial number: 10.00xxxx
The serial number of these rare models ranges in the 10.0055xx ... 10.0056xx
Unspellable please can post some photos of the prototype you mention. Thank you.
Ciao
Mauro
