What a beautiful LP08s!!!
If my eyes are good enough, the LP08 on the left is a Stoeger 3 lines, made by Mauser in the '30 era. As far as I know this LP08 is very well done and very appreciated by collectors. Right now I have only analysed a two lines 1923 Stoeger LP08. There are several differences between the 1923 and the 1930, not only related to the added line.
The other one is a Pacific Arm model. This is the first time I see a LP08 with the Pacific Arm disk in the grips. Right now my knowledge was limited to the LP08 illustrated in the advertisings. Very exciting.
Please note also the holsters, that are different from the Imperial one and are more similar to the Persian model.
Very very interesting.
Ciao
Mauro
