Dutch Navy Luger

jiddo · 07-08-2011, 03:15 AM

Hello all! I haven't been here for quite a while. I was here in 08 to get some info on a Dutch Navy Luger, I happen to have inherited from my Dad who has been deceased since 79. He brought it home from WWII along with his superior's permission letter.
I am not a collector and have considered selling or auctioning it for some time now. All the numbers match. I was told in my last visit here that the grips looked as though they were replaced (from a picture I had sent in). I also have the holster and two clips with spring depression tool.
How would I go about doing so?
Thank you in advance for any and all help.

Jiddo, I moved this posting to its own thread. And since you started a new user name, no one would be sure of your original posting. If I knew your old user name I could combine the two and you could use your original name.

What would help is new pictures posted here and the exact information you are looking for.

I like Dutch Lugers, used to own one, but somehow it got away from me

Thank you Ed. yes, I believe it was back in 08 when I first discovered this great forum. As I stated, not being a "collector", I am looking to part with this fine treasure do to changes in my life. There really are no descendants beyond me that would appreciate this trophy within my family and at 60 years old, I would hate to see it go in an estate sale after my demise. I would like to get as much as I can for it for it has been in the family for so many years.
I appreciate your direction with my posting and will get some new pictures A.S.A.P.
Thank you.

Looks like a lovely gun. But photos are pretty generic. Need at least a photo of the left side showing Dutch safety marking and also photos of the holster. Thanks

No problem... and thanks for your input and interest

I beg a thousand pardons... Back in 08 I remember getting into a forum about Lugers. I mistakenly could have sworn it was here. I wandered why my name "jiddo" didn't turn up or ring the slightest bell.
After searching my past e-mails... I found a reply from Luger.gunboards... etc
It was at that forum I had been.... duh
