hi guys im new to the forum but not gun collecting i have a good collection going and its not bad for my age im barely 22 hahaha.. anyhow my luger is the one gun that troubles me its so hard to find info on these guns due to all the variations but so far it seems like this site has helped answer alot of my questions. im mainly looking for help on identifying my gun i have several photos of it posted on my profile in an album any help would be much appreciated thanks.

Words help a lot.

what does it say on the toggle?

What markings are on the right or left?

Caliber?

Year stampings?


I hate going to albums and looking, when photos can be posted here, but enough humbug;

It is a 1936 Mauser made luger before WW2 started. its serial number includes the suffix, so your sn number is 8426k (if I remember right)

Hi Taylor, It would be easier if you had uploaded your pictures to your post, rather than to your profile. Your Luger is a 1936 S/42, and was made by Mauser, S/42 being Mauser's mfg. code. Your photos are not clear enough for us to assess condition, but it's certainly a valuable family heirloom! Regards, Norm

This gun has been buffed and re blued at least once before and exhibits some poor store rust marks and pitting now.

Shame.
