welcome to the wonderfull world of Luger collectors and the small 'elite" group of we "Dutch Luger" collectors! May I ask which country you hail from , it might help us better answer your questions. I have a 1912 Dutch Luger , and here is a link to the thread I posted up here when I was learning about it . The thread may help answer some of your questions. http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=19162 Stripping the Luger is quite simple and there are plenty of books and manuals on how to do it . However beware that in reassembly it is actually possible to reassemble completely without engaging the mainspring , you will know if you have done this as there will be no tension when you draw back the toggle . you must be carefull to engage the link under the mainspring hook, holding it upsidedown helps. here are a couple of How too's http://www.marstar.ca/AssemblyLugerPistol.htm http://www.gunsworld.com/p08/p08_ad1_us.html please note , there is no need in the course of normal service to strip beyond the removal of the toggle train from the barrel assembly and perhaps the firing pin retainer and firing pin or striker. Also be carefull removing the grips , on some models if the saftey catch is not correctly positioned you can break off a corner of the grip panel ! kind regards chris

I am only new to this and i can't believe how much info is on this site. Do you have any more info on the Dutch lugars? I would like to find out more about it. I'm from Australia. I looked at your thread v interesting. Will have to read some of those books. |

Not surprising there are quite a few Dutch Lugers here in Australia as large numbers of dutch soldiers and civilians were rescued when the japanese invaded indonesia in 1942. More than you will ever need to know about dutch lugers can be found in "The Dutch Luger" by Martens & de Vries . Its a beautifull book , very reasonably priced and contains much usefull info on lugers in general . http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_b?...ger+&x=18&y=16
