Simson pistol, I think this is Reiters Regiment is that right ? It looks as though the 7 is struck over a 4

I have these three in my records;
4/R.R.1.48 6./R.R.7.55. R.96.11.5. The straight R.R. instead of cursive for WW1 says Recruiting Depot Regiment. So, not really sure... |
Reichswehr marking:7th Reiter Regiment, 6th Squadron, weapon #55. A cavalry unit marking.

6th Scuadron Reiter Regiment (/ = Reichswehr)

Grip strap markings
I was under the impression that military (not police) grip strap markings were discontinued after 1916.

Though not all were marked, neither were they in Imperial times. |

Thanks, all taken with my phone. Take 10 keep the good one delete the rest, crop out what you don't want. Good light and I use a Galaxy Note 4 phone.
More pics of different Lugers in the near future. More of the same pistol. |
Great pictures; outstanding for a "phone"!

Phones have largely replaced the digital camera except for the extremely expensive ones for professional photography. My phone does as good or better than any camera I see at a Departement store, and it functions as a de-facto personal computer too.

My Pentax DSLR is 20 mega pixels, my phone is just 2! But then I didn't buy my phone to take pictures or use as a computer!:p |

I just noticed the Simson on the right has a more squared off rear curve above the loop unlike the gently curved Vickers on the left. there is a line you can feel on the Simson frame.
The Vickers loop is more square than the Simson |
Very nice pictures of a very nice Luger! Congrats.
