My First Imperial - 1918 DWM
Gentlemen, I received my very first imperial today!! 2nd luger purchase and I'm only 28 so I have a feeling there will be plenty more down the road. Anyway, I purchased this one from another user on this forum (I'd say who it is but he might not want me to, so I'll just say he's well known here and was recommended to me for purchasing an imperial).
Not that I need to tell you experts, it's a 1918 DWM 1717e. Totally stoked!!! I know more about Mausers than I do imperials, so anything you guys see that's either GOOD or OFF, please let me know! I don't know if I want to fire this one? What do you guys think? I've read on past, old threads, that the luger/forum elders suggest I replace certain numbered parts before taking it to the range. The photos are pretty high def so might have to dump in quite a few posts.
P.S., received my re-aligned barrel on my BYF yesterday from GT and it now shoots dead on, or at least LEAGUES better than before! It's been a good couple days for this lug' noob
cheers,
James
