It seems you got yourself an honest 1917 Erfurt that has seen some action, I bet the experts will soon chime in. Good luck with this and future Lugers!

Edit: I just noticed you were from Oz. the magazines are so light in weight that shipping to the US may not add that much more cost. may be worth looking into.

Cheers Jack, I have thought about that. although I may have to get some spares in the meantime to do while they are off getting repaired. also another thought I considered is that your postal service might have issues with sending gun parts, is that the case?

I certainly am enjoying it, unfortunately I cannot shoot her as the barrel length is under 120mm which is the restriction over in draconian Australia.
