New DWM 1911 Luger

[rhuff]

I know what you are saying concerning the Erma Lugers, as I own two of them. My hands just don't work as good as they once did(along with everything else!!) and small pins and small springs vanish into thin air, I guess. I never purchase just one extractor spring, as I know two or three would be much smarter given my "talent".

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,

I don't know if it came across right, but thank you very much for the information. Had no idea and it all tracks well.

Expected just a holster with the gun and to have that connection seems amazing.

Really puts it in perspective.
