Heydrich:
Since I was interested and this was close by (80 Miles), on the 4th of June, I checked it out personally. the 1936 Krieg # 4586 had questionable matching numbers: however it had a Mauser side plate,nunbered in wrong place, mismatched trigger lever, and sear bar, mismatched toggle axle and ?(dwm) wood grips w/chip at safety. Gun was reblued to include normally strawed parts. Reblue may have concealed import markings, I Did not proceed with take down of parts. To say something nice I told the dealer it was a complete franken luger and might make a shooter. Dealer admitted to limited knowledge of Lugers and said he had just reduced the price from $3000 to $2000. I passed and left. Sorry to hear of your bad experience.
Regards,
Ken D
