Luger Identifaction
 
Hello,

Back in the 60's I purchase three Luger frames. Serial # 45488 is a grip safety, no stock lug and the word Germany does not appear anywhere on the frame.

The other two frames are serial #'s 35408 and 44427. These are also grip safeties with out stock lugs, however the word Germany is stamped under the serial #.

The only serial numbers appear on the front of the frame and no other place.

All three have the spiral recoil spring and accept WW2 receivers without any over/under hang ie the receiver length and frame channel length are the same.

My questions are were these frames from P06 or P08 pistols and do the export frame serial #'s fall in the range of American Eagle Lugers?

Thank you in advance for looking at this

The grip safeties identify them as 1906. There is no "range" of American Eagle Lugers, AE and Commercial production (and a few Swiss) were intermixed with no particular order. Any 1906 Luger with GERMANY stamped on the front of the frame has a strong liklihood of being an AE, but with no certainty.
