New Luger purchase

Thanks for responding...considering what little info I possess about lugers, I don't recall ever seeing that s/42 stamp on anyone else's luger. I just assumed someone was trying to pull something in the past. Since the right side upper receiver has a crown over RC, is it safe to assume the barrel replacement was done at Erfurt Arsenal?

Just googled and found a post from phila dated Aug 6, 2023 #9 that he had seen 42, S/42 and E655? stamped barrels and believed they all came out of the Heer Depot...

Had to look up 'Heer'...means army in english...guess I'll have to learn German, too...lol.
