Molzy, I believe that some of the above comments may be incorrect. I do see an area of small pits or letter above the right grip, that may be a Sarco import marking (they are usually in this area), but with all the remaining straw and fire blue on the small parts, I would say that the finish is original or at very least, refinish in the early 1930s when the Police sear safety was added. Your one wood bottomed mag is probably original WW1 production as is the luger. The Schmeisser extruded mag is definately a later addition, perhaps even DDR renumbered, but can't tell without seeing the numbers on the bottom. Good find, TH
