I recently was given this Luger and kit by my Grandparents. My Grandfather reports having unburdened a German officer of it in the 40's (a common story I'm sure.) I don't know if the small caliber conversion kit was acquired at the same time, but both came back from the war with Grandpa.
I'm having a hard time matching the various markings with the examples provided in the forum, so I though I would just put some pictures up of the gun, its markings and the rest of the kit. The proof marks appear to be of the "nitro" commercial variety, but then all the major parts are stamped with at least the last two of the serial number, which I've read is an indicator of a military Luger. As the pictures show, there is no marking above the chamber, unlike any of the examples in the Marking documents on the forum. Any insight would be appreciated. I'd particularly like to know the approximate year of manufacture. I can't seem to get more than one file attached to this post, so I will try to post the other pics in the Member Pictures Section with my user name, famman47, in the tittle/description/folder name. Thanks |
