Imperial Lugers in WWII

redbird dave · 08-26-2009, 10:24 PM

Were Imperial Lugers commonly used by German soldiers during WWII? If so, how were these guns pressed back into service by the Wermacht? The story behind my 1918 DWM was that it was brought home by a returning GI after WWII. My gun appears to have been reblued many years ago along with the strawed parts. Too bad as it is all matching except for the period correct magazine. Thanks for any info.
