Its serial number of '00000' would typically signify a “zero-series”, early prototype or preproduction test pistol.
1-G5xxx would be Aug. I mapped them out based on Berger and Home Army intelligence reports. It's not ready for publication until I can confirm Berger's original source. How can you make such statements? I went through all/the surviving wartime documents.
Were you there and kept notes? So by making these statements with exact months, you must be aware of every labor stoppage, every stoppage due to lack of (raw) materials or parts and every production stoppage due to Allied bombing? Transferring production from one facility to another, rebuilding buildings and destroyed facilities and how that impacted production?

With due respect, you don't have all the surviving wartime documents. There have been been new wartime documents dug up since the York book. For example, we know why and when the third eagle was added to the frame next to the serial number. We can also use deductive assumptions from collective research and make educated guesses as to the approximate time of manufacture.
I agree with kimic's approximation, mid-summer of 1942. That's a little harsh. With due respect, you don't have all the surviving wartime documents. There have been been new wartime documents dug up since the York book.

Interesting how we go from a fact to an approximation in just one or two posts.
