Lots of questions answered there.

Yes that is correct. I realized that as I was asking it.

I was more curious about what makes one think that this is an Alphabet Luger. Is it because of the Crown n marking's with the 4 digit serial number? That is what I am finding.

I also see a few posts here and on other sites mentioning the consistency of the .30 Luger vs the 9mm Para. I will do more research; is there better performance with the .30 Luger over the 9mm? I imagine this has more to do with the .30 Luger being made with luger operations in mind.

Thanks for all the help by the way. I am kicking myself that I did not see that it was a .30 luger instead of a 9mm. My research is making me liek the .30 cal more and more though.

I really liked the idea of the 9mm as an easier round to get and more universal.
