Leo,
I cannot help you with your request for a gunsmith in Brazil. However, I must ask: Is 11835 the serial number? There are members on this forum that know a lot more about this than I do, but if this is the serial number, you might have a somewhat rare Luger. Please add pictures to your posting. Thanks, Mike |

Hello Mike,
Oh boy, I was expecting a negative answer. Thank you very much for answering anyway. Brazil is not a "gun friendly" country and thats why a gunsmith here is so rare. Let alone one with knowledge of Luger poistols manufacturing. Regarding the serial: No, its serial is 44945. The number I refeered (11835) is part of a proofmark (number 2 in Technical Information/MARKINGS/PROOFMARKS/PROOF1/iten 2) which is located below the barrel. It is displayed as the letters B, U and G in an upside-down triangle position. Above each letter there is a pentagon. Below the letters there is this number: 11835. My Luger displays also proofmak number 3 shown in the same section (Technical Information/MARKINGS/PROOFMARKS/PROOF1/iten 3). It is not military and has DMW logo, but no contract symbol next to it. So, I presume it is a commercial one. Besides, it is all dark, with dark grip. I am not sure it is rare. Though, I am almost sure it is the kind of 9mm produced between 1902-1908. Nevertheless, I will send pictures later. Thanks a lot. Leo |
