New here and new to C&R weapons - Need help with ID of P08

DavidJayUden · 08-01-2013, 11:28 AM

Greetings Karlo!
I can't tell too much from the photos. They are fuzzy and my eyes haven't started working yet today. But the gun looks like an honest old war-horse that has been around. Do the numbers match? The holster is a reproduction and worth about $35 in the USA. I suspect that the gun has been re-blued, but can not tell for sure.
Regarding the swastikas, I doubt that anyone here is too offended by them simply because they go with the hobby of WW2 militaria. We are neither offended by nor do we revere them.. They are just part of the business.
Anyway, if the price is good this may be the start of your new Luger collection.
