Neighbor's Inherited Luger
 

Hi to all
First off I want to bring to everyones attention I know very, very little about lugers and it's not my area of collecting. If my neighbor would have wanted to know something about M1 Garands, 1903 Springfields or about saddles and accoutrements
of the early U.S. Cavalry I could have maybe helped him. I have an elderly neighbor contact me about a Luger he inherited and I have not seen it yet and plan on taking many pictures of it in the next few days and posting them here to find out exactly what he inherited. The luger in question is dated 1937 and he says it has the same serial number of 95 on all parts including the magazine. It sounds like it has a box and he claims he pitched a small 'T' shaped tool with a hole in it that he found out later went with the pistol. I told him I guessed it would not be to difficult to find another tool. So could someone point me in the right direction in finding the proper tool for this 1937 luger. If possible I would like to find him an original one and not a current reproduction. A soon as I take pictures I'll post them here and let you guys tell me all about it.

Ahh, I can put a little imput here. For the price of some WWII tools, you could buy a few repro mags. I saw a period-one last summer (July '09) for about $95.00. Great shape, but I already bought a holster from him so...bye bye past prezs T_T

One suggestion: Try ebay or gunbroker, but be very wary. Some are repros that someone stamped the "proper" waffenampt. Though, some are very reliable, as shown by their ratings!

Hopes this helps!

Buy a tool from a forum member. This is a virtual garranty that you will be getting the real thing.....
