Post Info on my 1916 DWM luger

Ok I am still deciding on the 41 ByF so I thought I would have all of you tell me about my 1916.All part numbers match on pistol except grips and mag.

1916 DWM

Serial 4312

Under barrel: 4312 then a fancy looking "X" then 882 under that.

Right frame: Proof marks #15 from the tech page
Right barrel: Proof mark #17
Breech block: Proof mark # 14
Front of frame: 4312 with an fancy looking "a" prefix.

There is a lug on the bottom of the barrel that is stamped "VF"

Extractor "Geladen"

Front strap marked: 127.R.12.23

Bore is pitted, Lands/grooves not very sharp at all, it's seen many rounds!!

All internal parts are numbered #12

Grips and Mag do not match.

Finish, 80% strawing on the correct parts is there.

What do you think? Value, Shooter?

I will post some pics. I am going to buy a Digital camera today.

Thanks...Bryon
