Hi Edward, John, Ron and Lugerdoc,

Thank you all so much for yr info and help. Ron's description of the luger is very very helpful. I have been trying to identified my luger for sometime, until I saw the almost identical luger in the member's gallery.
It is extremely difficult to get any luger parts here in Indonesia.
I was really surprised and delighted by Ron's description of the marking 'DEPT M', his description explains everything. I used to think that Dept M stands for some no longer valid Indonesian Army Dept, but after looking at the other dutch luger in the member's gallery, I came to the conclusion that the brass plate was not attached by the Indonesian army, it was attached by the Dutch as the other luger has the same plate but diffrent markings.

Thank You all so much
Joshua
