I know nothing about metallurgy, so my assumption is that the Germans would use the best steels available in firearm production. I would further assume that 1939 is the last "normal" non-wartime year of Luger production, and that is the year in which the best quality steels were freely available. My conclusion is that quality-wise, you can't improve on a 1939 production Luger.
