Should I buy this DWM 1917 shooter for $475

From the picture it looks like mine? I guess I should have said; Can you verify which one of those three pictures it looks the most like on the top of the reciever?

The P08 is trhe standard model, the LP08 is the "artillery" model.

Also, "shooter" Lugers go for $400 - $550 right now, so your guess is a good one for prices.

Failure to feed can be several thinhgs, usually if both magazines are screwing up, it isn't that (although that is the first thing I think it is).

Are there reasons that you believe it is an artillery model?

What markings are on the udnerside of the barrel?

And welcome to the forum, meant to say that before, been a long day... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
