I was quite literally given a Luger 6 days ago. I have no idea about Lugers and was wondering if anyone can give me an idea of what I have. The date on the top is 1920. It has a tight action and the bore looks very good. The serial #'s match on the frame, sideplate, takedown pin and safety, but the toggle, which has DWM on the top, does not match the frame #. The bbl has no date or markings. I assume it has been refinished because the bluing is quite nice for a 89 year old pistol, but I don’t really know. It has checkered walnut grips, a lanyard loop, and no stock lug. It has 3 mags, one an un-numbered, wood-bottom magazine (original?), one (I believe is an original) has P08, fxo and the number 37 with some marking above it, and one looks like a newer mag. Overall blueing would probably rate 90+ %. Is it commercial, military, police? Is it worth anything?
Thank you for any input,
Alan
