What did I buy?
Hi Everyone,
I just joined the forum after buying a P-08.
Can anyone help me with the ID? I used the forum's pdf form:
Toggle - DWM script Logo
Chamber Top - Blank
Toggle Knob - flat crosshatched circles
Grip Safety - Not Present
Stock Lug - Present
Caliber - 7.65
Grips - Very Dark Walnut, Checkered and Borderless, No Insignia
Thumb Safety - Forward "Gesichert"
Markings:
Crown N - Under Barrel, Left Side of Receiver/Chamber
Serial Number - 8022 k - Across front of frame, across underside of barrel
22 - Rear of toggle, bottom of take down lever
GERMANY - across the front of the frame under 8022 and above k
Barrel Length - 3 5/8 inches
Extractor - marked "Geladen"
Front Sight - Blade, convex curve on the front and straight diagonal rear
Rear Sight - "V" notch on rear toggle
Magazine base - unmarked wood
Special Note - The top of the receiver does not appear to have as much relief out from the barrel base as its sides do but it is a smooth transition from the sides to the top and the top appears pristine.
I have not disassembled it yet - I have done P-38's but not Lugers.
Finish - Plum with hints of former blue here and there. No "Straw" color left anywhere that I can see. No rust.
Grips - worn.
Bore - bright with some remaining shallow grooves.
I would appreciate anyone's help on this - its nice to know what you have!
Thanks
