Just my 2 cents.

Probably, as a matter of fact, Herman Historica listed the gun as 8216N. The fact that I have doubts is because I saw the serial No letters of the 41-42 range in the book The Mauser Parabellum 1930-1946, and it is clear that it is not an N, at least as illustrated in this book.
Could it be there is another N stamped that was used during that year.
