New Luger addict checking in
I just joined the Forum and have learned more about the Luger and it's endless variations in just a couple of days than I ever thought existed.
I purchased my first Luger two days ago but have to wait until the 5h of January to pick it up. When I can disassemble it and make notes of all the marks and stamps I'll post my findings. In the meantime, from memory, here are some of what I remember;
.30 cal--Ser#9805 k--Crown over N---DWM--05 on all visible exterior parts. Wood based magazine ( not numbered ) and four inch barrel, stock lug and worn but intact grips, with the exception of the dreaded missing piece by the safety. The rifling is shallow ( I have no idea how deep the rifling should be on a Luger. ) but bore is bright and clean. The price was $800 and I traded straight across for a low-end grade Garand that I paid $250 for a couple of years ago. I have more Garands and I couldn't resist getting my first Luger.
I'd appreciate any information the forum would care to give me on my Luger.
Until then,
Merry Christmas
