I am intentionally reviving this old thread of mine. I have been thinking about German guns lately, including the Luger (and the Walthers I have purchased recently). That got me thinking about the one Luger I have currently, which I posted about here in 2013!

I have put the Russian grips back onto the pistol and taken some new photos (which I THINK are better than the old ones!).







The mag that came with the gun is inserted. It is a blued-body, aluminum base one with the serial number ground off and just the "Eagle/63" and the "+" visible, and the series code partially present (maybe "h" or "b").

I don't think there is anything left to add about this Luger. Looks like a Russian capture with Russian replacement grips. No "X" or peened/defaced inspector marks. Decent bore. Replaced side plate with "electro matching."

I also have this "random" mag which seems to be low quality. Is this a low quality "official" mag of some type, or just a cheap aftermarket one? No markings. Blue steel. Crude spot-welds on the ribs (both sides). Two roll pins holding in the black plastic base.
