I would imagine that the marking number is referring to this sites examples, number 46 is a Mauser proof

I do agree that 46 is a Mauser proof mark. aint a code "42" which is stamped on the toggle manufactured by mauser? Reading up about mausers with that proof mark "46" were manufactured from 1939 - 1940. At least that's in the Kenyon book I have. It was printed in 1969, so it could be wrong. I don't know! I treading in new water even talking about these vintage lugers.
but as for the new pictures, it definitely has the mauser hump. But I don't see the first marking as for SN on the toggle in any of the pictures where a SN is usually stamped. Does H&K lugers stamp them differently?
