welcome to the forum

you have not provided enough information to help a lot. We can say it is a five digit commercial model that possibly was in army issue so receiving the 1920 gov't marking. as that marking is a govt marking, not a date

many more pictures and words would help.

See 'how to ID a luger' sticky here on the new collectors board.

I think I have found the information I needed to date this gun! Thanks to this fine forum. Production ended in 1918 around 74722 with lazy m proofs on commercial guns, my guns serial is 72828 and has lazy proofs , so only 1894 ish from the end of production.!! Or am I missing something?
