1914 - rework?

[Edward Tinker]

Why does he say "revoked" to the army in the 1930's?? Unless he means it was one of the police forces that went into army service, but I'd have to look at the unit marking. Looked at unit marking, but on iPad can't tell much except it was marked, then changed unit name at some point.

Mismatched trigger turns me off. I can deal with a mismatched or blank firing pin or no number on the rear toggle pin (which would be correct for a 1914 anyway).

So, I think $1500 is too much.

That said the H on the left where acceptance and proofs are is cool and never heard of a cactus stamp? But the WaA stamping would have been added post WWI.

Lets look at history of the gun.

WWI, then at some point went into police service (not necessarily reworked at that time), and then either while in police service or then taken into police service (again I would need to look at unit marking) it received a mag and sear safety (see our book or the FAQ). The mag safety was removed in the 30's.

Note, yes guns were officially reworked, for many reasons. Some Lugers were kept in army service, some hidden, some went to police, some were kept by officers or senior non coms after WWI.
