Default "New" DWM 1916

I just picked up another Imperial Luger from www.gb. It's funny, I call it "new", but as far as I know, the fellow I bought it from could be any one of you, and this Luger could be well known around here.
Regardless, it's new to me.

It is in good condition with some minor pitting on the barrel, and the raised portion around the rear of the frame.
All the numbers, including the grips, match crisply. The magazine is aftermarket.

My only concern is that there doesn't seem to be any sign of a "halo" around the stampings, but if it was reblued at one time, it was done nicely, as the numbers and edges are all sharp, and the interior is still in the white. All the pitting appears to be on top of the finish, ie: no blued pits. I think it's a well preserved Luger that fell on hard times with a previous owner and got freckled.

I have a few more pictures on my website here: My 1916 Luger



I have wanted a 1916 DWM for some time, and the price was right on this old piece.
