Hi,

The KU variations are one of the most faked Lugers. There are 4 specific different variations, and then a couple of very unusual variations. There are KU's with a suffix and with a prefix, with 42 on the toggle or byf. Even a few with the S/42, or a 1940 date. Some have Large serial numbers and some have normal sized ones. According to the book "The Krieghoff Parabellum" by Randal Gibson, your gun is a 16XXKU and has a byf toggle and was about 2700 made.
