An Old Salt Navy '06
On a previous thread LugerVern requested pictures of navies that were not in "pristine" condition, just genuine '06 Lugers.
This is a "First Issued Altered" Navy that I purchased from the sister of a USN officer that picked it up "somewhere" in a German navy yard.in 1945. It has a fairly common unit mark on the rear grip strap. This weapon has seen a lot of service in both World Wars. The Luger came in a "First Variation" Navy holster that had belt straps retrofitted in early 1917. The holster unfortunatly is in rather poor shape. Left side of '06
