Hi Noel,
I have used one of the pictures you post to me to explain the differences between the prototype and the normal production. As you can see the last two digits of the serial number have been deleted.
Gerben I remember that a few years ago the Italian importer Bignami imported some reworked byf from Mauser. They were reworked , according to Italian law, in 9*21 caliber and were sold with the Mauser certificate and the test target as well (somewhere I have the magazine were one of this pistol was tested). These pistols were sold before that the Mauser located in Oberndorf ceases the activity.
I guess very difficult that the "current" Mauser is involved in the Luger businnes.
Ciao
Mauro
