7.65 1918 question

Dave Sanders · 04-25-2009, 07:55 PM

I took a look at the luger. The barrel of course was add on many years ago due to its age look, it was not numbered to the gun, all other parts matched the gun except the side plate which was un numbered. It also had the GERMANY stamp on the bar near the side plate. He still swore up and down that he read it was common to have a 30 caliber luger and dated 1918. I tried to tell him that if it was a 1918 dated luger, it had to be 9mm, but gave up trying to convince him of that. And to top it all off, he wanted $1500 for it. Yikes, I can get a nice unmessed with one for that and probably with the holster.
