What Was The Last Documentated

Well, what do you call a major manufacturer?

Anything over 20 thousand made? Then that knocks out Kreighoff...

But seriously, Krieghoff made some 1945 lugers that were dated.

After the war, some lugers were made up in the mauser and the krieghoff factory for GI's.

The french made up less than 3,000 if memory serves me right of left over parts from the mauser factory

The East Germans (DDR) made up and refurbed parts for lugers in the 1950's and in fact made about 2-3,000 of them mostly from new parts.
