Export Marking?

Dwight Gruber · 03-12-2003, 02:09 AM

Robert and Al,

If this is an inter-war (Weimar) commercial, any number of things might have been done to it. I'd start by looking for a Crown/N proof on the left side of the receiver. From the look of things it appears that this Luger has ben reblued. Is there any evidence, such as a difference in the finish or a non-straightness or "dished" appearance, that the proof marks have been removed from the right side of the receiver?
