Variations of 42 code lugers

Mike B · 06-17-2010, 05:07 PM

Greetings,
For what it's worth, I have a 1940 dated 42 code with serial number 2046n. It has black plastic grips and a matching magazine. The Luger is in excellent condition; I would say probably a 95% pistol. That serial number indicates that only 657 Lugers were built between it and the above 1389n. I have wondered if the black grips on my Luger were originally installed or a later replacement.

Mike
