I recently bought a 42 byf, which is Russian dipped and stamped as import on the barrel. The Serial no is 116 l and frame is marked E/135 E/135 and eagle. The barrel is marked 116, but no chamber dimensions. Maybe a new barrel as it has stamped "luger P.08 9mm Germany" and imported by CAI***. When I inspected it found a replacement firing pin and sunburst markings on trigger guard. It shoots o.k. but I got a used mauser firing pin from Tom Heller. Haven't tried the mauser firing pin, but I do not expect any problem. Joe Inabnett
