Hello again,

I shot the luger today and she's quite happy with 115gr FMJ. No stovepiping at all and what I have read so far seems quite true; there is an inherent accuracy in the design and ease in firing.

Have been doing a fair bit of research into what she is and from whence she came. The trouble I have run into is that though there seem a lot of 1914 lugers about, the 1913 is less common (must be due to fact that their business got much better the next year )

Anyhoo - here are a few images I've taken (and cleaned up) to help with seeing the features. I've set some as negative to try to make clearer also.
They were taken both with & without the gun assembled.

Care to examine and share your opinions on some of the markings?

Many thanks.

Matt
