Just a note regarding my artillery Weimar, some time after it's 1917 production, it has gone trough these changes;
short barrel, "black widow" grips, unoriginal magazine and something that looks as if it has been soaked in black paint of some kind! (not reblued and looks terrible).
So i quess mine has no big collection value and is just a step on my way to a "real" artillery luger <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
