Hi guys,

Let me ask you where is the Luger here. I apologize if the question does not make too much sense for you.

I�´ve started looking for a shooter and just spoke to someone trying to sell one for U$D 500 (faily reasonable price for what i want to spend and current market values). This guy, who doesn�´t know much about Lugers either and whom i just gave this board as a must see reference, told me that his gun is supposed to be a DMW with the date 1913 stamped on the chamber but non matching mumbers on the barrel /toggle and the rest of the gun (frame?).

Where is the gun? Is it more important the slide/top or the frame if you want to date or determine which kind of gun are you getting? I understand that once you�´re talking of a non collectable shooter it shouldn�´t matter so much but since these are fine guns with some history... i just wonder.

Thank you all for your time,
