Serial numbers.....

Jaguar, look at the front of the frame and see is a small case letter is stamped below the serial number. If so, it appears you may have an "Alphabet" commercial Luger made in the mid-1920's. Your barrel is also likely 98mm or approximately 3 7/8 inches long. With an empty chamber and the breech closed, insert a pencil down the barrel until it rests against the breechface. Mark the pencil at the muzzle and then measure it for an accurate barrel length.
