Re: byf Luger has arrived
Matt,
Congratulations on the "byf" 42! I have one of these and it is approx. 95% condition also. One thing I have noticed on mine is the quality of bluing is not as good as on the 1938 thru 1940 Lugers. Also the machining is not as good either. Mine was one of the last produced for the Army before Mauser stopped providing them to the German forces. I think it is in the "m" suffix block.
I also like the Third Reich Lugers the best and I need a "K" date to have at least one for each year of the Third Reich. One day I will find one that I can afford or I may have to save up to buy this one.
Gook Luck on your next purchase! To me, the hunt for the next pistol is great fun.
