Today I have cleaned an other P08 from the collection.
I was in a display for about 20 years and some little rust was on the weapon and the spare mag and also on the tool.
With oil and very fine steel wool it looks fine again.
This one is marked S/42 and dated over the chamber :1938 Serial number 8046G "wehrmacht abname " markings
all numbers matching.
Two magazines number 8046 and original tool.
Including nice holster with name on the inside.
Great condition

Are you sure its 1938 and not 1936?
A 1938 P08 would be all blue. This one has strawed small parts that were phased out mid 1937.
They would be correct for a P08 up to mid 1937, but not on later ones.

To fast on the keybord : it is 1936 ;)
And the holster :

Stamp on the holster

Nice example of a 1936 rig.

So this P.08 has serial 8046g and both mags 8047g ??
