Well, here it is ! My first artillery. Not very impressive, but it's mine, bought and paid for! A 1916 Dated DWM Ser#282. All matching, including grips, and hold-open.Adjustable front and rear sights. A couple of rough spots. Minor pits on front bands. One tiny spot on frame.Some one has tried to take pits out of side plate and cold blue it. Bore is frosty, but with good strong rifling. Mag unnumbered, but correct style and era.

Just added photos of repro stock. Courtesy of George Anderson. Re-finished and aged it. And fitted locking cam bolt. Added repro grips(for shooting),also courtesy of Mr Anderson. Now if I can dig up a holster at Reno. It'll be time to buy another Luger!! Ron
