Default 29 DWM Navy

I posted my Navy over on Jan's site, so alot of you fine gentlemen have probably seen it. I have'nt been able to post pictures here, could'nt get the ooga booga.

I found this rig at a local gunshow. I though it was an oddball of sort's. Navy property mark, MA mark, no proof's on the right side, shaved front frame, 1920 chamber date, 4 inch 9mm barrel. I honestly did'nt know what to make of it. Bought it anyway, brought it home and found it in Jan's book "Weimar Lugers".

Please tell me what you think.

Thanks, Jesse

Jesse,

I've got two Weimar reworked Reichsmarine Lugers. Both are Ostsee marked. Both are 1917/1920 DWMs.

Neither is as nice as yours. The one big plus is, that one of them is a very rare Simson rework "E/O".

That is a very nice 1929. Ostsee marked pistols are a bit scarcer than Nordsee marked.

Jesse,

Very nice Weimar Navy piece! Congrats on your find! The holster, that you have showing in one of the photos, is it also Navy marked?

Thanks for posting and Happy New Year!

Joe.......thanks, the holster is a 1916 Rich Hanel. not navy marked. Also a spare imperial mag, I'll post a photo later.

Tom A, "very nice", words that sing coming from our resident Navy guru.

Can you tie the serial numbers to the property numbers. I would like to use the information in my research of R-Marine and K-Marine Navy Lugers. I recently found a rather nice and scarce K-Marine Luger. It is a 1939-S/42 number 5382n with a North Sea property number of N3596.

Don,

29 DWM Navy S/N 8377s, Navy property MA O.1292. with 1920 reichswehr chamber date.
All matching except the firing pin. And I don't know about the mag, a matching number but I think a field armorer match.

Don, I hope/ think this is what you want. If not please don't hesitate to ask. I'll send photo's of whatever you'd like. I would be proud to have it included in your research.

I just happened upon it on dumb luck. From my research I'm finding they are somewhat scarce.

Blue Skies, Jesse

ps, here's a couple photo's of the mag's i promised.

That certainly was a great find, I hunted for years before one finally found it's way to my vault. The - s - block MA Lugers are a special breed.
Good Luck
Don

Can you tie your property numbers to serial numbers and pistol descriptions for my R-Marine research?
thanks

Do any of you guys have any Navy marked takedown tools? I need pictures of any variation that is available.
Thanks
Don.

I wonder what the serial number and letter suffix might be that are attached to O.1329 and O.190. Research requirements.
Thanks

George Anderson is selling a couple of guns for me. Among them is a RM marked LP-08 with a Anchor M proofed holster, tool and rod. The gun is at Louisville now at SOS.
