police luger

[Dwight Gruber]

It would be useful to see closeups of the left forward part of the gun, marks on the right barrel, marks on the bottom of the barrel (including the witness mark), the front of the frame and the trigger guard, the left and right sides of the breechblock, and the top of the toggle train. I am also curious to see the two matching marks (c/N, I understand) on the right frame and receiver.

The receiver proof is definitely a DWM-style proof eagle. From the pictures posted so far, this appears to be an Erfurt frame and a DWM LP-08 receiver with an Erfurt barrel--or possibly an armory spare barrel. I'm really looking forward to other pictures--this kind of puzzle gun really whets my interest and is a terrific exercise in observation.

It occurs to me to wonder, in an offhand way, if there is a number on the back of the frame above the lanyard staple?
