Re: Rare ??? luger
If these unmarked Lugers were made by or for the OSS to be used by agents in occupied Europe why didn't we just issue captured Lugers, as asked by a previous responder. What advantage would there be in being found by the German police with an unnumber Luger. That weapon would arouse great suspicion, because it was so DIFFERENT. Where did the OSS get a company in America that had the tools, time and the highly skilled workers to stop everything and make a few Lugers.
Think about it, it dosn't make any sense. The gun was probably made up after the war ended for the GIs, as was previously mentioned. The OSS story was added to give this Luger "value". Why would anyone buy a gun from a dealer who tells you HE will get in trouble with the ATF for have a gun without a serial number. What about YOU being found with that gun in YOUR possession.
