1908 ??

Sn, 40697 rt. side not marked l. side of rec. marked crown over B and crown over U sideways. It has hold open but no proof mark like when added later. Bug under bbl. with sn. and 118.35. 40697 on receiver front and under bbl. not marked Germany, sn. on all parts but safety, firing pin or extractor. No sn. inside of grips, hole in receiver near trigger for mag. safety but no mag. safety. fireing pin is fluted with tool marks inside of grove, not smooth like my other lugers. It also has a sear safety.
blueing is very good and bbl is lightly pitted.
I think it is a 1908 commercial with sear safety and mag safety added later.

Thank you

Bill E.
