Overstamped Serial Number?

Ronald,

Thanks for your encouraging words. I like this 1936 and plan on keeping it for many years.

So far, I've encountered the odd one other time in Luger collecting. I've got one of a very small number of out of sequence "42" year military proofed Lugers with a Mauser Banner toggle!

This pistol was probably manufactured in April as the Spring weather arrived in Oberndorf. I can imagine a worker who's focus was on the beautiful weather and not the dies in his hand... At least, that's what I'd like to think!

Marc
