Kirk,

Well that's a y-block gun made in early autumn of 1937.

Approximately half of the 10,000 guns in the block were DE63 DE63 proofed like yours. Also seen are DE63 SE63 as well as SE63 SE63.

Virtually all of the guns had the Mauser hump like yours.

Hope this helps.

I was always able to get it to feed a new round by pulling the toggle back a little . I inspected the hold open spring and it not broken and appears fine .


I added a pic of the front of the frame with the script letter also.

Congratulatiions on your new LUGER.
In all honesty I wouldn't have shot it, as I never shoot collectibles, I take to the range only new pistols, or at the most shooter grade ones.
Still it's your gun after all.
