Luger pistol DWM 1918 New luger found in holland
 
This pistol has found by someone at home in the Netherlands a sort time a go. I hope, that one of you can give of any information of this weapon.
The serial of it is 3515, I forgot to note the suffix but I give you this later
if it is necessary.
It has also a regimentâ??s number on it on the metal beyond the grips on the site of the trigger. The number is: R.S. 4.19
The two magazines ware loaded whit ammo from WW1.
The ammo was dated 1914-1915 and eats clip has 5 cartridgeâ??s

The luger is in good condition and all of the numbers match.

Question: whitâ??s regiment was this?
and what is the prize of this luger when I sold it?

R.S. 4.19 is an Imperial German unit stamp that signifies: Reserve-Sanitats-Kompagnie 4, waffe no. 19.
Is there a date above the chamber and what is the complete serial number with suffix?
Thanks

Thank you for your replay Jan.

The date above the chamber is 1918 and the suffix whit serial
is 3515 g and was made by DWM.
The exacted date of the ammo was s-10-18 there ware 9 out of 10
and one was date s-10-17, this means I think, 1918 and 1917
I don't no what means the s or the 10 on the bottom of the case.

You have an interesting 1918 dated Luger with 1917 and 1918 dated ammunition. The collectors on this site would like to see photographs of both.
Thanks

I will make the pictures of the luger and the ammo, but the weapon is not by me at home so it can take I day before I can uploaded the pictures.
Place can you tell me the values of the luger.

The value of a Luger is difficult to determine without examining the Luger in question in detail first hand. A value range might be from $400 to $1800. Depends on if in original matched condition or not. Also the value in Europe may be different than in the U.S. Your photographs will help some in that determination.

Very nice,

Finish appears to be all original. You said it will probably end up in a museum collection. Which museum will that be?
