Ronnie,
* See the attached URL for a post on the "Mauser Hump".
http://forums.lugerforum.com/cgi-bin...topic;f=2;t=00 0112
* Almost got a line on this one.
* After seeing the picture/explaination at the bottom of the attached URL post, can you now respond whether your S/N 3404ns has a "frame hump" or not.
* Also, is the inside of the frame "in the white" or blued??
* One last thing: Is there a number or numbers on the inside of the side plate?? What are they??
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks for your patient prompting of this unlearned neophyte---
Answers (albiet late) to your post above are as follows.
1. No, no frame hump. I guess I was looking for something pretty overt, but this is fairly subtle to my untrained eye. After comparing it to a byf 41, I can see the difference.
2. The inside of the frame is "in the white". I do know what that is.
3. There is the number "39" inside the side plate, and almost exactly on the opposite side of the last two digits of the s/n

Also of interest to me, is that the initials "MBH" just in front of the lug on the bottom of the receiver. These are pretty small, about 1/8 or less Wonder what those mean?
I now realize that this pistol is probably "boosted", by the addition of spurrious marks. But, HEY, that's what this forum is about, or at least I thought it was. To increase everyone's knowledge!!! It's great to have several folks come down on both sides of this issue. I am in no way dissapointed in what this has brought. Win some, lose some. Still it's a nice Luger. Perhaps next, I'll post the pride of my meager collection. Yes, a Navy!!

MANY THANKS TO YOU ALL!!!

Still learning in West Texas!!!

Ronnie
