Welcome to the forum. Mauser made your Luger in 1936 at their factory in Oberndorf am Neckar, Wurttemburg, Germany. DWM's Luger manufacturing operations were moved there from Charlottenburg in about 1930. At that point, "S/42" was Mauser's concealment code, assigned by the government for military contracts.

Welcome to the forum. You'll probably enjoy a copy of our forum's FAQ document. It is a great reference and has decades of accumulated Luger forum knowledge.

Just follow the "FAQ" link at the top of every forum page and download the PDF.
