This same photo was the subject of a thread on Jan Still's forum that was initated by Jerry Burney (lugerholsterrepair). The general direction of the anaysis of the photo on that forum is that it is an air pistol and that the photo probably is Weimar era. I have to agree that it is an air pistol, one with a wood or plastic material grip and fame cover, and having a top break barrel for loading and cocking. I do not think it is a Luger, neither LP08 or .22 conversion.
