odd ball KU

phillyriverrat57 · 08-08-2012, 04:07 PM

if you do research in the current gun blue book it states that Ku lugers should be marked 1941 on the chamber. i do tend to find these books to be wroung alot as i have a 1862 colt pocket navy in 95% condition and every discription for this gun states they had silver plated backstraps..military models didn't..once again experts being wrong.. that why i like lugers so much, they are unusual and tend to turn up with unusual markings on them from time to time.
i won 3 other lugers, a 1917 DWM with natzi barrel( not matching serial number with waffen stamp and natzi eagle with swatstika putting it into the 1934 to 39 rebuild period
a 1920 dwm commercial with no germany stamp on it
a all matching 1937 mauser S/42, right down to the FXO mag in it
