We don't necessarily focus on just this American Eagle model DWM M1906 Luger, but you can get a start for free from our FAQ document. Just follow the FAQ link at the top of the page.

jorge, Your M1906 American Eagle luger was an improved version of the M1902 First ever 9mm Parabellum pistol. The American Eagle logo was used by DWM as a marketing tool in the USA, to indicate that the US military had tested 1,000 lugers in 1903. TH

Without the full serial number it is impossible to tell you anything substantive.

I was also curious why the OP purposely blotted out part of the serial number.

Wow... a very nice example of a very early commercial Luger.
Dwight maintains a commercial database here: http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=38758 sn 48608 has not been reported before, so let Dwight know about yours.

A very nice example, made probably late 1910.
