Question about a 1920's Commercial

TJ Hooker · 03-03-2008, 02:42 PM

Hello all,

I have acquired a Luger in 7.65mm that I believe to be one of the 20's commercial varrieties. Serial number is 10xxI, DWM on the toggle. Gun is in very good condition with all matching numbers.

My questions is:

What is the material on the bottom of the magazines? I have two magazines with mine that have aluminum bottoms on them. One of them has a single digit inscribed that matches the last number of the serial number. They appear, to me, to be aftermarket mags but the single matching digit has me questioning that. The bottoms are matte finish with aluminum with no coloring.

Any help would be appreciated. I plan on selling this gun and I am trying to provide the best possible description to any prospective buyers.

Thanks,

chris
