Just acquired 1902 Luger Carbine
 

I've been a Luger forum lurker. I just acquired my first Luger, a 1902 Luger Carbine #23606. It actually was offered in a post on this forum in 2003. I just acquired it from a person who acquired it when it was up for sale in 2003.

It is a mint condition Luger.

You lucky dog! That is the classic Luger...enjoy! That is really starting off your Luger collection with one of the top pieces. :)

That is a beautiful Luger Carbine. Congrats It just doesn't get much better than that.

I was looking at this person's assemble of Lugers and when I saw this one I said I can have multiple Lugers or just go for one.:burnout: I'm an eclectic collector and don't desire to specialize in one make but to have a broad collection. Next on the list is a Colt SAA although I thought the Colt SAA was next on the list until I saw this Luger so who knows.:)

That's truly a beautiful Luger Carbine, the only problem that I can see is that any other Luger purchase you may make will be anti-climactic :), but hey, nothing wrong with starting at the top. Congratulations Ken and welcome to the forum. :cheers:

It's a real beauty- now I have to clean the drool off my keyboard! KW

WOW :cheers:

That's actually what happened. LOL He showed me quite a few good looking Lugers, and then the last one showed me was the Luger Carbine. Then the previous ones he showed me looked pretty dull.:) He wasn't even planning on selling the carbine. We had a chuckle out of that.

Unfortunatly its down hill from here! Just kidding, nearly impossible to beat! Perfect Stock!!!

Very much something. Looked up the original posting, pictures long gone, perhaps still on my laptop somewhere ;)

Wonderful find from another collector!

Man... I'm envy.

I almost had to wrestle my friend for it. He said if I didn't buy it, he would find a way to buy it.:) I wasn't that educated in Lugers, but he is. Thank goodness I have 20 years on him.:)

I didn't mention it's has all matching numbers including the stock.

"Thou shalt not covett thy neighbors' Luger Carbine"!! 13th commandment....

:) :) Probably right on that one Eric, but I don't remember reading anywhere that says a guy can't look at it and dream just a little. :rolleyes::

Congrats! Beautiful!

I agree with all the above....congrats!!

What a great plan. Now that you have an excellent Luger you can concentrate on the Colt. Two of the finest pistols in the world.

Wow, stunning Luger! STELLAR!

A real TREASURE! Congrats!

Congratulaions indeed!

At a gunshop where I often go they had one for sale until not long ago for I think Euro 15K
