Hi Danny,
* What kind of help are you looking to receive?
* Called an "ac45-zero series" by the collectors. It is a known P.38 variation.
* It is commercial; but, still made in the late/last days of WWII. Are the proof marks Crown/N or eagle/swastika? Also, is there an Army e/359 acceptance??
* Estimated 1900 made between the S/N range of 025960 & 027659. They came after the "Mod P38" marked guns.
* Typically rough in fit and finish. Notice the late war features like the "Cog" hammer with 3 serrations as opposed to the earlier/customary 7 serration style.
* The barrel and the locking block should also bear the S/N (or a portion there-of) for the piece to be all matching.
* Nice find.
* Trust this helps get you going on an ID.
Respectfully,
Bob
