Please help identify my Luger

Gentlemen,

This is my first post. About twelve years ago a co-worker invited me to go shooting after work (my first time). He brought along a Luger and I was hooked. Several years later I bought it from him for $425. Wanting to learn about the gun, I purchased Lugers at Random. I'll humbly admit that, even with the reference book, with so many variations I don't know much more about the gun than I did the first day I saw it. I've always admired the 'friendly expertise' exhibited by the experts on the Luger Forum. I'd like to ask for your collective help identifying my Luger. Tell me as much as you can. All I can say for sure is that it is a 'new model' Luger. On the underside of the barrel it says 'Made in Germany'. I can't make sense of the text to the left of that phrase. The grips are black plastic. I've never seen them in any pictures of other Lugers. The magazine is an after-market part. On the top of the gun, behind the barrel where many of the guns have a year stamp, mine has nothing (appears that it was possibly ground-off?)

Thanks in advance for taking a look. Enjoy the photos.

Regards,
John
