"Hanger Queen" but still a Luger

mrvair · 02-28-2010, 05:35 PM

The gunsmith finally freed up the firing pin and he got the bullet out. I appreciate all of the advice and fortunately didn't have to use any of it !! I was surprised to find out that it is a .30 and not a 9mm. Kinda disappointed but now I can justify another Luger just to get a 9.
I would like to try and date it with your help. I have attached pictures of all the markings not already posted.

Is it common for the receiver to hang up as shown in my last picture? If not, I would appreciate a solution to fix it.

I can't wait to shoot it (the gunsmith said it was OK to do so.)
Problem is, I'm like Barney....just one bullet !! I've ordered a few boxes but they are on back order.

Thanks again for everybody's help...this is a great forum.

My first pictures were too large to submit.

Truly a thing of Beauty. All of those years and probably a bunch of tears. If those Ladies could only talk. Something as personal as that, has a soul. Just to reconnect would be a nice thing.
