I have very limited knowledge concerning commercial, as my focus always has been on the military/police versions, so I am hoping that the members may be able to help me

Speaking to the alphabet Luger series, my friend has a commercial model with a 4 digit serial number 6947, but no suffix. Were the alphabet Lugers started without the suffix and when the production reached 9999 each time they advanced the letter starting with a?

All alphabet Lugers had the small parts numbered in the commercial fashion, yet this pistol's side plate and take down lever (straw) while correct, are done in the military style. No number on the safety lever.

Any idea as to when the alphabet Luger production stopped?

Thank you for your consideration.

Joe
