Typical S/42 1938 military Mauser luger. Serial range (according to Jan Still) 400b-4500n, estimated production 113,800. Note the magazine appears to be a Haenel made police magazine. It is a good shooting luger. Use current manufactured 9mm luger ammo such as Magtech, Winchester, etc. These puppies tend to stovepipe with reloads or older rounds. Of course the magazine quality is crucial. The follower should move up and down without hesitation. Wouldn't hurt to lubricate the inside parts. Good shooting!
