Magazine safety

jcmh · 04-12-2003, 12:53 PM

I would like some information on a recent acquisition. It has the magazine safety modification however only the spring is present. It has two sets of numbers,toggle unit receiver and trigger are same # and takedown lever, sideplate and barrel are another. the slide is not numbered.The toggle is marked DWM and there are no military marks. Any information would be appreciated.

Hello James;

Actually a little more information is needed. Since it has two sets of numbers, it is probably from parts (or at least two sets of parts) and makes it much harder to pinpoint.

Here is what i normally ask to get more info:

Can you tell us any markings on the gun?

Proofs? (see on your left under tech information if you came through www.lugerforum.com) Tell us what and where proofs and markings are located.

There are forms in this section, where you can print out and then write down pertinent information.

What serial number is on the gun? To include any letters next to or under the serial number?

What year or letters are stamped on the top of the receiver? (or is there nothing, that is what I took from your note above?)

What initials or letters are on the toggle?

Can you provide pictures, to include side, top, etc?

The only proof on the gun is a crown over an N, no marking on the receiver, serial #2747,as I stated DWM on toggle. Also the sideplate is modified for the magazine safety although it is not numbered to the receiver but is the sane number series as the barrel and takedown lever.
