New Luger owner with questions...

Thanks everyone!

Someone on another forum looked up the number in a book for me and estimates that it was built in early 1925.

They also pointed out the grips, so what are the tell-tale signs that they're repros, just their condition or something else?

And any opinions on the finish, original or not?

Some folks on here are very specific about abnormalities and are most helpful. Others make statements like "looks like reproduction" without any explanation. After awhile you sort out the ones that are worth listening to.
