Rookie Luger owner (1917 1920 DWM)

Sort of interesting gun. It started out as a WW1 military weapon, and was eventually sucked into the "inventory" of the Weimar regime, thus the 1920 property stamp. I noticed that the receiver has the cut-out for the Artillery sight, something usually seen on Erfurt guns, not DWM. So we better wait for some more knowledgable opinions.
I'm not seeing anything particularly special, just a nice double-stamp. Insurance valuation might go $1500, which OMHO is a bit above retail.
Welcome aboard.
