Trying to learn about Lugers

Edward Tinker · 03-04-2009, 11:06 AM

In its condition about $500-$700, but some 0000 steel wool would clean off the rust, but there will now be blemishes and hopefully NOT pitting underneath. I would guess in the middle, the sideplate pitting turns many folks off...

I collect police lugers, so interested in all, although I like them in a bit nicer condition and with unit markings.

What is the magazine marked? It is the later aluminum type (not WW1 era, but could be "correct" if issued later) and the are there any markings on it on the front gripstrap?
