Help Please With Info on This Luger

[Peter Anhalt]

Re How was this model deactivated, I was trying to quote the original source in my reply and only posted the original source. Sorry about that, can't get the hang of posting quotes, anyway.

The model has been de-activated by a steel rod inserted at the breech end.

I've taken a couple of pics, hope they come out OK.

Thanks for your interest.

It's a bit more than that...It looks like the chamber was drilled oversize (awful rough surface for a Luger chamber); then a slot milled lengthwise along the chamber length through the receiver and barrel/chamber; then a hole drilled transversely and the steel rod pounded in...

Can't tell if the rod was welded as well, but somebody did a quick & dirty grind of the end of the rod...

Yep...I'd say that was de-activated, all right...
