29 DWM new purchase

George R. · 07-26-2009, 10:58 AM

Goodmorning,

I would like to thank you guys for this forum, I do not really post but I read alot. This is a 29 DWM blank toggle, serial 4018u grip marked L.D. 190 ( Landjagerie Düsseldorf )all matching on the parts that should have numbers, the grips are pencil marked inside. Some wear to the high spots and the strawing looks great. What else can you tell me about, this is my first blanko police. Should the magazines be wood bottom or aluminum or combination. Should they be numbered to pistol or blank. Thanks in advance for anymore info.

Magazines should be aluminum and numbered to the gun with a #1, 2 or #3

George, if you have a copy of History Writ in Steel, you can see where your pistol fits among others of the Landjägerie Düsseldorf in Chapter 13.

Hi Don, yes I believe I need that book, it will make more sense out of the other police lugers I have. Thank you
