Estate Find

Hi and Welcome -

What do you want to know about it?

You have a WWI German Army Luger manufactured by DWM in 1916 (the date is over the chamber - or is that a 15? can't quite tell from the blurry picture). Looks to be in pretty good shape,and appears to be all original finish, but more and sharper pictures would help.

There should be a "16" on just about every small part you can find. If all matching, then it is worth over $1000.

Both of the walnut grips are chipped at the bottom corners - they don't usually chip there.

There is normally a letter suffix under the SN on the barrel, but I don't know what the mark is below the SN on your barrel. Doesn't look like any letter I know. May be an old rework on the barrel?
