Your new Erfurt artillery Luger probably is more of a shooter than a collectible, 1914 Erfurts even had small proofs on the grip screws for instance, and if I'm not wrong only about 23000 of them were made and not many survived in 100% unmolested condition, buuuuuuuuuut it is quite a nice gun so congratulations indeed !!

Thanks Luger.Parabellum,
yes, even the grip screws have the small inspection markings.

I'd like it to be "prettier", but it will do until a better one comes
along!
