History of My "Balck Widow"...

Pete, it sounds like you have some work cut out for you. I have been looking at BW's for some time and never ran across a BW with your markings. I would tend to believe that all the old parts would have been used up on re works rather than on new guns and those parts would also have been exhausted first! I hope you did not pay much and if you got it for a deal and your happy that's great. I just hate seeing people being taken because of so many irregulararities in Lugers. Anyone can take an unusal part and make a gun look special when so much has yet to be documented. Trust your instincts and always ask lots of questions. You can never be too safe. Like you said, the search is like a challanging hunt.

Keep the faith.
