Luger DWM #887

Janne,
Welcome to the forum.
Be sure that folks here will do their best to help you to keep your father's Luger with the family.
But... we need more pictures.

For instance: a clear view from the right side to see if there any proofs there, clear view from proofs and serial numbers in frame and below the barrel ... oh, and what is the caliber: 7,65 mm Luger or 9mm Parabellum?

Until now, I see an odd pistols: made by DWM and originally an Artillery model that had its barrel and sights changed, fitted with the relived sear bar (introduced in 1916). In my opinion this gun went through some kind of refurbishing which is common to Finnish Lugers (hence the lack of date over the chamber).

All the best,
Douglas
