Hi David,

Jan Still's book, "Third Reich Lugers" has a fairly accurate chart which will show you the different letter blocks. There is some overlap on some, but for the most part it is real good information. "W" blocks were found in the 1937 S/42, 1939 42, and byf 41 models. -- And the "W" block was also used in the Mauser Banner commercial and police models, but the military and Banner "W"'s are two seperate, distinct blocks.
