Jack, Thanks for that extra info. I looked again and saw that stamp you mentioned (wouldn't have seen it without you telling me where to look and even then had to look twice!). Looks like it's "1 50". Now I'm curious what work was done to it! (yes, curiosity gets me a lot!)
As to your question: The funny thing over the number is the adaptor to get the rubber hogue grips on it. It had some funky plastic target ones prior but they interefered with case extraction so they had to go! It's a 38/44 OD from 1935.
Keep thinking I need to find some good reference pictures of the checkered walnut grips that would have come on it and try to make some replicas.

A pre war 38/44 OD with a Houge Monogrip....That should be illegal
