See the review of 'Standard Catalog of Lugers" here on the forum - Aaron wrote a good book, but there are errors in it.
Thanks, I'll have to look up the review.

Regarding the 90 on the barrel, Aaron made a big deal about whether or not something was stamped then blued, or vice-versa. This looks to me like it was stamped, then blued. The finish on the gun seems to match. But I guess the killers are the sights not matching up to something production.

Does anyone know if Luger ever made a front sight with a gold/brass inlay? It's about 1/4" long and the dot is tiny. I never even noticed it until I got it out in the sun yesterday to take pictures.
