So, after a little bit of research I think I've got a timeline that this Luger may (or may not) have followed:

1921-1934: 2nd Reichswehr Division, 6th Infantry Regiment. Headquartered in Stettin.

1934-1937: Renamed as the 2nd Heer Infantry Division. Still in Stettin.

1937 (Oct): Renamed as the 2nd Motorized Infantry Div.

1939: Combat in Poland

1940: Combat in France

1941 (Jan): Renamed as the 12th Panzer Div. Sent to Eastern Front. Combat in Minsk, Leningrad, Kursk, and others.

1945 (May): Surrendered to the Russians. Kurland, Latvia

Obviously I have no idea if the pistol actually travelled to all these places, but the unit it was assigned to was all over the place
