New DWM 1911 Luger

It is one earlier Luger of the XIII Army Corps which was not added with the hold open. It seems that only parts of the Lugers of the Württemberg Army Corps got the hold open. I tried to fix this since years. Thanks for sharing!
Our holster with the 127 infantry regiment unit mark was also part of the XIII. Army Corps and nothing speaks against the possibility that Luger and holster were together since 1915.
Holster marker was J.M. ECKART in ULM who made most holsters for the XIII. Army Corps.

Klaus,

You are welcome for the sharing though that goes both ways.

Everyone is great with the information.

Was the 13th Corp both a WWII and WWI organization? I found some references to WWII.
