All Matching Lugers AGAIN-LONG

Ted is correct about the matching parts. I went Saturday morning to look at an all matching 97-98% 1941 Luger. When I got there the pistol was extremmly nice and was 97%+ condition, and I thought I had found a real peach. I asked if I could take the pistol apart and check and the seller said yes. As soon as I removed the cannon assembly I looked at the Toggle Pin and it was matching. So far so good! Then I looked at the Holdopen and the number was differrent! Uh Oh, a definite problem! I then removed the Firing Pin and it was adifferent number. I showed this to the seller and he said he was not aware about the mismatch. I don't know if he did or not, but anyway I did pass on this one even though it was a really pretty pistol. Anytime you look at a Luger, check everything and don't get "burned" on a bad deal.
