Default Re: Pawnshop Luger Find...question?

Bill

What your looking at is a pre war military Luger made by the government arsenl at the town of Erfurt. The value is different if this weapon a stock lug, as they were added during August of 1913. The small marks that looks like an eagle is the Army Test proof mark. The inspection stams are on the right receiver. This is a crown with a German Gothic letter under.

The questions that needto be answered as to this weapon's value are;

1. What is the % of bluing is left on the gun

2. Do all of the small parts have the same number as the last two numbers of the serial

3. Does the magazine have the same # as the serial

4. Do the wooden grips look original or are they like plastic material

5. Are there import marks, usually found on the bottom of the barrel

6. What is the condition of the barrel's boar
