Kai, Thanks for the data!! Most appreciated!

HI, 42 byf sn, 1400c, no ma=bore markings, Bill

Frank · 06-07-2014, 11:44 AM

Bill, thanks for the data. It's appreciated!! Although a little early for the lack of bore guage markings.

I'll check, but I'm sure for the serial number with small S letter, and byf 42...
S is after k or L, so why did you say "too early"? It seems to be of the last lugers manufactured by Mauser.

2762i no bore gauge

Frank · 10-09-2006, 07:14 PM

Richard, thanks a bunch for the date!!

Theirry, the 42 byf production began in the B-Block and ended in the N-Block. Most of the M & N - Blocks were contract pistols to either Portugal or Bulgaria!! So a "s" is either too early or too late!! I said too early because it couldn't be too late, since none were made after the "n"!!

John D. · 10-09-2006, 07:46 PM

OK - here is mine.... (WOW - I can't believe it has taken my EIGHT months to post this!!!

)

SN: 3063 f suffix
No bore guage
E135 proofed

"since none were made after the "n"": Are U sure?

I'm sure that gun is original...
I'll picture it in details to show you the letter, perhaps I'm wrong.

Frank · 10-10-2006, 09:48 AM

John D, I can't believe it took you 8 months either. Of course, you haven't been very busy

Thanks for the info!!

John D. · 10-10-2006, 11:46 PM

Hey Frank..!!

Actually - I *forgot* I owned a 42 BYF RIG until I got many of mine out of the safe for Ed to look at..??!! I also found my 41 BYF RIG..??!! Hmmm....

I'm not senile - just getting old..

Anyway - hopes the data helps!!!

Best to you Frank!!
