I truly appreciate the Info, probably the most interesting thing ive come to possession of thus far. It truly tickles me that it could have been Police issue.
As sad as it may seem, my cell phone camera is all I have along with my Mrs. as well. However I got her to take some pictures for you since I wont be back home for a few days. Shes pretty gun savy and didnt do a bad job, hope they help.
Shupo, I think I see what you talking about, here is the side of the luger you showed me and I cant find any difference so i think it has what you mentioned.
heres what she did for the left side for ya Don
And as for the flap on the Holster, I even tried to get it in the picture, Its very hard to get a good picture of. She got it kinda better
oddly its deeply stamped, but its thick embedding, and it has deep x's stamped on it. ill try and borrow a good camera when i get home for you guys. workin with a straight talk phone right now haha.
She ended up gettin ticked off, but when I get back Ill get some of each part and it broken down for ya. and ill try and get the backstrap. It doesnt look like the others online, its quite small, but ill try and get a good angle.
just bare with me
Oh and those extra items from what she said, was a whole "what i call the upper, the thing you **** "pull" EDIT back, its dated 42, with the german eagle stamps, a barrel with no markings best she could tell. and also allot of small parts for it, main one i could tell by her description is the thing you rotate downward to take it apart."hope that makes sense"
Give me a couple days on it, Have to be at the Armory for training this weekend, but ill get these up for you in the mean time.
"by the way, anyone know of a site that does info on items, like field caps, badges, a uniform and id cards? im trying to make little placecards for all this stuff in my display room but dont know bout em." I have the big book printed by US War department about the german army, but that only goes so far.
Thanks allot fellas, been a hoot so far
