I would definately say this is a collector luger. One would really need to see it in person to give an accurate appraisal. You took excellent pictures but pictures are sometimes hard to read as far as originality. It's hard to tell on the grip. It is a Mauser grip. Could have been put on anywhere after the 1930's. Very nice luger. Now you need a 1918 holster. You need to obtain a copy of Jan Still's new book " Central Power Pistols". Excellent book with very nice pictures and much info. Welcome to the Forum. Be aware that lugers are contagious and one cannot live with one. Bill
