no, just means gun made early 1941 (based on serial number)
It is impossible to value a Luger with just a serial number.
Try asking at Jan C. Still's luger forum.
if you look down on the luger top you will see a date. that is when it was made.....
They were originally made in 7.65mm Luger (.30 Luger) but many were rebarreled to 9mm Parabellum (9mm Luger). Have a gunsmith check it.
Way to many variables and a scant description. Go to Jan C. Still's Luger Forum and look around.
on top of the luger, where the barrel goes into the receiver ther is (usuaally) a date. On the left side of the frame, just down from the date is the serial number. Usually not more then 4 numbers
100-1000 or more USD depending on specifics
100-1000 or more USD depending on specifics
it merely refers to that number produced for that year, and a number to be used for arms inventory...........................
look on top of luger, where barrel is affixed to receiver. you will see four numbers, that is when it was made. no histories recorded on lugers
