Quentin, Nice 41 byf "W" Block Luger!! Tom was correct, it's a w, NOT a u.

Wow. Great looking Luger.

Hey thanks a lot for straightening me out, Tom and Frank! And all these years I've thought it was a 'u'.

I'd better correct my records then.

That's pretty amazing we have such closely manufactured byfs, Tom - 7138 and 7345 in the W block.

I guess they both were made around September 1941? And just had their seventieth birthdays ...

ETA:
Whoops, I need to update it in the forum databases too!
