Assuming it's a military pistol, only because you posted in the Military section....

If it's an early military luger, it's likely going to be early in the year, since you didn't include a suffix.

I am curious why you want to know.
Does it matter much ?

It's 42 with the year 1940 stamped on it, I am just curious
