Krieghoffs at Greg Martin Auctions

It is obvious that Krieghoffs "lead the way" as evidenced by the recent gavel down prices. Only other lugers to even try to come close were Mauser banner contracts, one nice artillery rig and the 1908 Navy. The police and double date lugers never got out of the starting gate.

I attended the auction. It's seems every luger had a matching magazine, which always bothers me. Here's a 36 Krieghoff. Look at the machining marks on the chamber. They don't show up as well in the picture. Krieghoff Lugers were of the highest quality. Has anyone seen marks like this on a Krieghoff?

Look at the top of the side plate, it's rounded. Krieghoffs are square.
