Hello everyone,

I have recently inherited a WWI Luger. It is a 7.65mm with a 3" barrel (length of cylindrical section). It has an upright Crown N proof on the left side of the chamber and a sideways Crown N on the left side of the extractor. It also has a Crown N on the underside of the barrel. Thumb safety reads "Gesichert." Extractor reads "Geladen" on both sides. There is no grip safety. Fixed V-slot sight. There is a stock lug.

Serial number is 8318 on the barrel and frame. Below both serial numbers is what looks like a cursive letter "O."

I'm trying to identify which model this is. My Great Uncle Howard brought it back from WWI.

Sorry about the picture quality. I may be able to get ahold of a better camera, if needed.

Thanks a lot!
michael
