I am very happy with my purchase.

Its a 1918 Erfurt 9mm P08 Luger Serial # 1994

The pictures make it look much better than in person. The finish is worn more than is shown in the pictures.

It is all matching numbers except for the magazine which has no number on it. Would it hurt the value of the magazine to number it with the 1994 serial number on the wood? OOOOps, I looked real close and there is a number on it, in a smaller font and not very deep. Its #1136. Anyone need one that number and have one closer to #1994 to swap for it?

I bought it as a shooter for $800 but it is in much better condition than I expected at that price.

I am new to Lugers but think I may have stumbled into a good purchase on my first one. Its a Christmas present for my wife for Concealed Carry. Its heavy, but very "pursable" and its one of the few SAs that she can cycle with her arthritic hands. With the safety easy to operate I think she can carry it with a round in the chamber anyway.
