Mike, Please don't be petulant and childish. Fascinating..yes of course. Any Luger this far from the norm is fascinating.
What I meant by not a real Luger is it's had parts of it ground away! Ok..to make you happy again I retract it. It's what's left of a real Luger.
Now, let's address your holster issue as that must be more important for you than discussing the in's and outs of your pistol.
I made you an offer..a more than fair offer by the way. You accepted. You Thought better of it and I said fine..Now you want to petulantly cry like a baby that I'm not treating you right? It was my belief that you might want the correct WW1 era holster for your pistol. Instead you plead for help! Please!!! someone tell me I did the right thing. In the collecting World I make trades everyday, I try to help where I can. I guess no good deed goes unpunished.
You don't like what I have to say that's fine but lets stick to talking about the merits of the pistol and leave your emotions and feelings out of this. I'm not out to "get" you over some traders remorse you had.
I thought I gave your pistol some serious thought and analysis.
One other thing I will add about your Grandfather...he likely had the pistol for many years before you saw it or it came into your hands. Maybe decades. You don't know for certain what it's provenance is.
Why would you get booted? You have acted properly and remained civil. Concentrate on investigating your pistol and get your paranoia in check.
