OK, what do I have?

There's an italicized "i" on the front of the frame, but except for that, all the markings on the exterior of the pistol are shown in the linked photographs at the bottom of my first post. Is there somewhere on the gun I should more carefully inspect that isn't shown in those photos?

I suppose it's too much to hope for, but is there any record of what serial numbers were issued to what units? It's very interesting that this is a Russian-capture, because my mother's brother was killed fighting outside Stalingrad. It's a million-to-one shot, but if there's a record of what units were issued what guns...

Thanks for the help thus far! I sincerely appreciate it.
