1918 DWM Luger Value and info?

5 Attachment(s)

Just picked up a 1918 DWM Luger. It is all matching with the exception of the grips and magazine. What is the value and is there any other info you can give me? thanks.

I can't tell much that you don't already know; WW1 German military, 9mm, appears pretty nice, correct and original except the magazine. Specifically what all did you want to know?

I noticed there were no imperial markings and was wondering if there was a reason? also, it's an "m" block serial and was wondering when that places it in 1918?

What's the SN?

I don't the mag is an original Imperial, wood bottom looks wrong - is a reproduction.

Hi Michael,
Welcome to the forum! Since your 1918 DWM P08 has no military inspection marks and, more importantly, no proof marks, I believe it was assembled after the end of the war from parts. Perhaps a "lunch box special"?
Regards, Norm

Yes, I'm thinking one of the Stoeger Luger magazines, maybe.
