Need help ID Luger

Thanks for the picture, great example of "matching" number but not "matching" side plate.

It does need cutting to work.

PM me if you want it cut.

Excuse my ignorance on the Luger. But once I get the side plate cut to fit or happen to find a matching number plate what would the value of this pistol be ? I have tried to do more research with the wonderful help of the forum members and the internet but I seem to be overwhelmed with information.

You have interesting problems and many helpful suggestions. So here are mine. Send the entire pistol + side plate + magazine to either of the members recommended. Have them not only fit side plate but also "tune up" the pistol.

In addition take clear pics of the front and back straps so that the police unit it was attached to can be ID. It's been mentioned that a 1936 police Luger is very rare so this would interesting too.

PS Keep looking you may find more gems!

Sorry, I missed the excellent picture you have of the back strap in your first post.
