New guy, new gun, same old questions

Actually not really a new gun. It's my dad's, he brought it back from Europe in '45. I've shot it and stripped it several times over the years, but now I'm interested in any history or value. (Although I would never sell it)

It's a very accurate pistol, btw. Uncanny, really.

At any rate, I'm just curious what some of you more experience guys can tell me about this pistol. It was retrieved from a German POW, and that's about all I know. All of the parts have either a 133 or 33, and I guess that means the numbers match? It's an S/42, made in 1937.

Here's some pics, sorry about the quality, I'm a better shot with bullets than film.
