Could be. According to the write-up, documentation exists for the piece. And yes, a GL stamp is very rare.
It is an interesting Luger, but one wonders that it is not being presented as a restoration when it obviously is. I find it amazing that this Luger or other handgun of that vintage with that much wear on the grips would have 99%+ blue and straw. Also consider the careful wording of the ad..."It was customary to deliver a presentation Luger with the box and all the accessories. It is very difficult to find one that is pristine in the box new"...which would lead you to believe that the reproduction case and accessories that have been assembled were originally with the gun. The "period" cleaning rod seems more appropriate for a 1906 vintage Luger than a 1900.
Now this may be a 100% legitimate Luger, but the presentation leaves much to be desired for "truth in advertising". Is it the real deal...don't know...what do you think?
