It is the right length. Stoeger is reputed to have imported 7.65 Lugers in barrel lengths for 75 mm (3 inches) to 600 mm, about 24 inches (wikipedia}
My commercial 1920 has a 3 7/8 (98 mm plus).
Have all the fun you want but there is the Heiser 1772 and it is a Luger holster, if you go to that Heiser Website it does show one in the holster. It is a good fit
Jan Still's Weimar Lugers notes 3 5/8 or 3 3/4 barrel lengths as most common for 1920, for the alphabet commercial most are 3 5/8 inch barrels. Still says Stoeger Lugers had 3 5/8, 4, 6, and 8 inch barrels. I believe the longer barrels reported on Wikipedia above are Pacific Arms import barrels
1929 Commercial are usually found with 3 3/4 barrels, Some are Stoegers [Jan Still, Weimar Lugers p258]
But, I do not know why I bother, you already know it all
