Jumping Down The Rabbit Hole and In Search of Good Imperial Lugers

spartacus38 · 01-20-2012, 02:33 PM

Hi Bill,
I agree that 98% Imperial Lugers are are difficult to find.I just sold a duplicate 1917 DWM in
99% original condition with one matching mag.The buyer was very pleased.
Andy has been patient for two years and can wait a little longer.I waited 10 years to buy my first
1914 DWM Artillery in 98% and about the same for my first 1914 Erfurt Artillery in 98%.

Norme, Bob, David, Bill - Thank you all for your insight and viewpoints. Your replies are very much appreciated!! I take the suggestion to heart about 98%+ condition guns as I also would enjoy a specimen with some minor wear. Matching components and originality walk hand in hand with an acceptable level of wear on finishes for me. My ultimate desire is a DWM or Erfurt 4" barrel gun with unit markings on it. That ups the price I'm sure as well as the rarity. I may put a want ad up and see what happens. I very much appreciate and take into account your opinions gents. Thanks very much!
