Default The War Trophy Luger of DWM

BEFORE you get corrective with the dude with yaller boots, this is a JEST story with pictures of a POLICE LUGER I restored for the Late GREAT TOM ARMSTRONG! Wow, what a great person and he knew a lot about Navy and Krieghoffs. Included is a SATIRICAL Story I wrote just fur funning! A few BEFORE pictures on the bottom of this Luger.

The Luger War Trophy
The smell of cordite, blood and sweat hung heavy in the air! The rolling acrid smoke stung the young soldiers eyes as he peered through the haze of battle. Only faint moans of wounded soldiers muffled through the air and in the distance the faint clank of the machines of War from the retreating army. The soldier overwhelmed from the recent memories of the roar of battle, the cry of people being hit by small arms fire and artillery shrapnel stood in a daze remembering the recent senses reeling episodes of exploding shells, running and screaming people and all the other noises that made up the battle that had just concluded. Some of the smoke and haze cleared and the young soldier spied a German officer crumpled by several hits from a machine gun. He lay in an awkward crumpled heap that bespoke the violence of his death. Coming closer now………watching warily for any sign of life, the solider saw what he had long to find! A fine German pistol, or so he assumed, housed in a slightly blocky looking hard black case or holster as you yanks might call it. After certain the officer was stone cold dead, he removed the fine German pistol, glinting in the sunlight that was striving to clear the battle haze and smoke. IT WAS A LUGER, and real German Luger and upon close examination of the fine weapon, he knew he had found the personal weapon of the famous German General!! General Dieter Wilhelm Mauser!! For on the top of the toggle was inscribed the Generals initials in a fine scroll work! General DWM!!

Cool story and fine restoration. I understand that Hermann Goering, when captured, had a pistol in his holster that prophesied the time that he would spend prior to execution. Sweat and Wait.
