Hi Jerry, many thanks for the swift reply. The gun is an early British deactivation. Sad I know but the only way we can now own these in the UK. At least I suppose it saved them from the crusher.

I grew up in British Channel Islands in 50's and 60's when no kid was anyone without a luger in the post German Occupation years...they were everywhere. Buying this is a trip down memory lane for me but I have forgotten most of what I knew, so any information would be appreciated.

It hadn't crossed my mind that it might be a Police model and I would also be interested to know if it's been re blued or not.

I did put some images on the forum for help with the regimental markings and the forum members suggested that some of the markings might have been Weimar period.

Best regards,

Simon
