When you get it, check to see if it has the internal Mauser "FBM" proof mark, or a Nitro proof (done for the European / non US market).

... update after photos posted... Looks like it was originally made for the European marked with E/N proofs. That late in the production life of Mauser's Lugers it must have been stock that was diverted to the USA marketplace...

Import Marked?

These are remarkably well made Lugers... Congratulations.

Marc
