Laura,
the above gentlemen are correct in assuming that the gun may be a commercial artillery Luger. What would help, until you get some good pictures, would be to look on the right hand side of the receiver to see if you have any military proof marks on it. The first break-down of a luger is into two pieces. The receiver is the top half of the gun and the frame is the bottom half. If the gun is a military and not a commecial LP-08 then there will be anywhere from two to six marks on the right hand side of the receiver with most of them looking like maybe one-eighth high eagles. If the gun is a commercial LP-08, then there will be nothing there and it will look like there never was anything there.
