East German Lugers?

Lugerdoc · 06-24-2005, 08:52 AM

Buxton's Vol3 on DDR P38s also goes into the lugers a bit. The E.Germans reworked many thousands of earlier PO8s, but the best info I have found, is that they only made about 150 new ones from scratch (no lanyard loop or stock lug and lots of C/n proofed parts) in the N1000 to N1150 serial number range. Since there were also newly made P38s in this serial range, it is still up in the air, whether there were 150 of each, or only 150 total of both. TH
