[Identify] Need some help with "Franken"Luger

[DonVoigt]

How about a picture of the top of the chamber? And a better picture of the circular marking on the right side of the receiver.

So far, I can see the DWM receiver was re-barreled commercially and re-proved in Germany.
The E/N is a nitro proof, and the E/J an indication of re-buliding/replacement of the barrel.

It actually looks like a pretty good commercial 30cal. to me. I wouldn't do anything but a thorough disassembly and cleaning. I wouln't "refurbish" anything. Remember Antiques roadshow... 10 percent original finish is better than 100 percent refinish.

Gunbugs, thanks for the response. "Commercial"? as in production for general sale and police? Not Mil?

Disassembled, lots of lithium grease!?, cleaned reassembled, now hunting .30 Luger ammo locally.

DonVoigt, thank you for the response and insight. Can I get you to clarify "top of the chamber"? Is that with the toggle open? I will also get a better picture of the circular marking as requested.
