Mystery Luger

[LugerVern]

It is estimated that 17,000 1910's were made. Reported ranges of samples reported are from 5095b to 5358d ( this data may be slightly out of date but it is close)
Your SN range should fall between these numbers, each block being 10,000 guns.

Your gun does appear to have had some numbers removed from the frame just under the barrel, you can provide a picture of this area if you like?

The number just in front of your receiver lug look like a â??5â?� and this is a third number of your true serial number â??548â?� there may be another number before the five for example â???548â?� .You guns serial number had what we call a suffix just below it either a â??b. c, or dâ?� Here is a picture of a 1910 Luger SN 648 and how the lug picture looks for that gun.

What I found very interesting doing this research on your gun is that I found 3 other examples of 1910â??s that did not have SNâ??s on the barrels. I didnâ??t realize how interesting a study 1910â??s were.

Thanks for posting
