Gentleman, may i introduce to you, lp_08, serial a 6327

[wolfganggo]

Iâ??m reading this forum for a while, interested in identifiing an parabellum my grandpa brought home from war, grandpa was member of â??Organisation Todtâ?? (i think it was his personal weapon), and bevor her died he gave it to my father.

Many years ago my father took the gun and together with me (his 12 year old boy) he disassembled it, cleaned it and protected it with an sweet smelling weapon oil, probably in this days my enthusiasm for parabellums has itâ??s roots. I can smell the old oil, only thinking on this days, itâ??s like smelling an old steamengine, you donâ??t need to see the things, you can feel past days...

I collected some manuals and drawings of the gun, and with my growing knowledge, i saw other parabellums, the long one, the ari version, and i know, somedays i will be the owner of an long ari parabellum.

3 weeks ago at my shooting range i saw an pretty lp-08, after one day of thinking about the price, i gave ma heart hick, and bought it. Hardly payed to the dealer, i went back to the shooting gallery and fired two magazines of rounds, canâ??t belive, iâ??m firing my lp-08 ari, and i have to tell you, iâ??m very proud ....

So let me introduce this gun to you, to you gentleman, being the specialists and lovers of this kind of guns
The lady is an 1915 â??DWMâ?? produced gun with matching numbers, except the grips. An â??fxoâ?? extruded magazine was in the gun, could hardly fit to an 1915 weapon.













Looking a little strange to me is, the numbers on the magazine seem to be original and old - could the gun have an â??overhaulâ?? during WW II. the wooden grips are serialed with â??60â?? and the have an Waa655 stamp on it (possibly at mauserwerke oberndorf ??)




So my quaestiones to you, the specialists:
What markings do an 1915 DWM magazine show, i know about the wooden magazine base, but when searching for an original magazine, what shall i observe ??

Do woodgrips produced 1915 at DWM have any markings, are the serialized ??

Iâ??m looking for an snaildrummagazin and loader tool ...;-)

Yes, i know, itâ??s the wrong place for an â??ordinary 4â?? barreled p-08â??, but excuse me, i will present you this gun also. The younger sister of my ari 08 is an mauser oberndorf produced 08.
Also with matching numbers, a little bit worn blueing....








So at this place also a few questions to you:
This weapon has no Waa stamp on it, any ideas why.
What indicates the â??B90â?? stamp
According to the little proof-stampguide on your site the proofs indicates â??mauser military proof on â??Kâ?? or â??Gâ?? dated examplesâ??, was this enough for the â??Abnahmeâ?? or indicates the â??B90â?? stamp the â??Abnahmeâ??.
I found this stamp (B90) also on the magazine. The mag has no other markings and is an â??ironplate â?? foldedâ?? type of magazine.



any comments are welcome
