Lugers With Duplicate Serial Numbers

[Dwight Gruber]

Just as an example of how pervasive the duplicate Luger serial number situation is, I have drawn up an example list of models among which will be found identical serial numbers. I have chosen the most extreme situation, variations which can be found with four-digit, no-suffix serial numbers.
