The barrel and receiver appear to have come from an Artillery Luger. The notch on the top, front of the receiver, and the remnants of the mounting area for the LP.08 rear tangent sight are visible in the pics. My guess is that the original barrel was turned down and shortened, and a new barrel band/sight block applied. If we had some extreme closeups of the barrel band/front sight area of the muzzle, including a shot from the front end so we can see the crown, that might provide a clue.
