Dad was in the Army, stationed in Heidelberg and Vienna just after the surrender. For many years I thought he brought his Luger home with him. I later found out he bought it stateside around 1970.

I've really enjoyed studying up on it here, this forum is a wonderful resource. As far as I can tell, it's a 1935 Mauser. I'd really like to learn more about this Luger's history.

The magazine is an obvious repro. It's chrome with a plastic butt plate, so I didn't include pics of it.

Thanks, Steve
