A Most Interesting RC Luger

Doubs · 01-20-2022, 11:18 AM

A few days ago I posted this composite of a Luger I purchased in 2003 and have since given to my son. It's a second variation 1937 Mauser S/42, all matching except the unnumbered grips and unnumbered magazine. There are no markings to indicate Russian Capture or East German use but it appears to have been dip blued. I concluded that it was an RC and EG issue Luger. My conclusion, of course, could be wrong but who else other than the Russians or East Germans would have dip blued it?
