I think so. Here are my clues to this -

1. Front sight blade not quite right length (too long)
2. Fonts different barrel-to-frame
3. Bluing different barrel/frame
4. Witness marks don't line up
5. Witness strikes at different angles - two separate strikes

Witness marks, front sight blade can be seen above - bluing & fonts below...

Also - Chamber end of barrel is raw steel; my other Luger (S/42) has blued chamber end of barrel...
