Nice close ups, but really, the best might be, full left, full right and a full top.

I am guessing it has no date on it?

Unless it is a WW1 that was re-arsenaled (very possible) for commercial sales. It could also be a 1920 or 1921 new made and sold as a commercial sale.

Does it have 'germany' stamped anywhere on it?

The three magazines are WW2 era - yours would have come with a wood base mag

All the assorted small numbers and letters on the luger are called factory worker stamps and mean nothing. The small markings on the luger mags are acceptance markings.
