DWM matching numbers

monk69 · 08-21-2003, 08:47 PM

I'm looking at purchasing a 1915 DWM Luger rig with supposedly all matching part numbers. The problem is that the main toggle axle pin and the firing pin are unnumbered, while the hold open, grips and all the other normally numbered parts are. I've read where DWM did not always stamp the axle pin and other internal parts and I'm wondering if that may be the case with the one I'm looking at. The guns a good 95% overall, with an excellent bore, AND it's got both matching magazines AND a holster numbered to the gun also. Is it a righteous (all matching) piece or does the lack of those two parts being numbered make it close but not all matching. Any insights from this knowledable group would be greatly appreciated.
