Chamber date

Beautiful pieces, did you come by them as a set?

proof marks

S/N on barrel and frame

Regimental mark on rear grip strap

Right grip panel showing number "95". The left panel also has "95" stamped on it too. Two numbers off s/n, go figure!

Thank you, Rick B.
To what are you referring to, Paradox998? If you are referring to the '15 with the matching stock, yes they were acquired together.

Thanks guys for the interest in my thread. It's late and I'm going to bed. Got to work tomorrow. :bigbye:

Joe,

Nice unit marked LP.08s....Thanks for posting them.

Joe,
bragging is fun isn't it? Nice going on your purchase. Your halfway there in having a set. You only need a 1914 DWM & Erfurt and a 1918 and you will have the cycle. I doubt that there are any 1918's with unit marks though. Then when you get that, you will have to get the holsters with the appropriate dates. The search continues. But your well on your way.

Joe, first class close ups. Great set of artilleries.

Really nice set!

Gentlemen:
Thank you for your kind replies. Ok...now that I'm awake. I've had these pieces for a "while". They were acquired/purchased separately. Norm, would I like to complete the set? Absolutely! but...when '14 DWM LP.08's pop up, well, we've all seen the price tags. Same with the '18's. I wasn't trying to brag...well, maybe a little :D . I've been lucky. I haven't made too many mistakes and the ones I did weren't expensive. I also have some excellent collector friends to call on for second opinions.

I met Ron Wood at this year's NAPCA convention in TN. I've been a Luger Forum member for a while but seldom posted. Ron Wood encouraged me to start posting more on the forum.

Thanks again.

Joe, three very nice unit marked LP08's. It's really interesting that few marked LP08's are to artillery units or MG units. Thanks.
