The rightmost Eagle standing on the Swastika was Proof stamp. Two other Eagles standing on 135 -- Luger collectors call it SE/135, those are inspector stamps. Through decades of observation, collectors found the different tiny numbers on Mauser are related with subvariations, not random. SE/135 SE/135 became common by the end of the no suffix production of early 1942. So your gun match the patterns appear on many other byf 42.

I have a copy of "The Mauser Parabellum 1930-1946", so I just looked up. It's a great book for Mauser fans.
