George,
To be honest with you, I didn't know that any Lugers had adjustable front sights. Besides, I only saw it for a moment at a local gun show. I was on the verge of buying it until I was advised that $3000 was too much to pay for it. (Thanks again Lugerforum members.) The ole' boy wouldn't come down a dime. ;-(

Hi Don, The sights on most Artillery Lugers could be adjusted by small screws (presumably by a unit armorer). This feature started to be phased out towards the end of 1917, and the transition models, where the rear sight is non adjustable, and the front sight is, are of some interest to collectors. Regards, Norm
