Shooter Artillery

Spotted this one on a dealer's site I've done business with. I've been wanting a shooter and I think this will fit the bill with a new right grip. What do ya'll think? Click below pic for right side.


DWM 1914 Artillery Luger 9mm $525

8" barrel. 1918 chamber date. Correct-type, unnumbered wood-bottom magazine. All matching but sideplate. Checkering sanded deeply on right grip. 95% blue, 60% straw.


The bore on the Artillery Luger is excellent. There is no pitting visible with my naked eye either inside or out. This would be a very presentable pistol but for two defects I mentioned in my original listing:

1. Someone has deeply sanded an area on the right grip (presumably to obliterate initials someone carved into them a long time ago.

2. The takedown sideplate is mismatched to the rest of the pistol. (All other numbers match.)
