Jorge,
Yes, a Brazilian contract Luger has the longer barrel and grip safety. If the gun you are considering has a small B inside a circle on the left side of the receiver, it is a Brazilian.

Thanks for the info. BTW, nice looking photo!

Seller says these guns are registered with the Brazilian military (otherwise I wouldn't be considering them - one may be arrested for owning an unregistered weapon), but I will double check the Brazilian contract.
