Erfurt Luger 1918

I would add a little something;

1) I wouldn't shoot the ammo in the mag.
2) don't know where you live but finding a gunsmith that actually knows anything about Lugers is not always easy--specially if they are under 30 years of age. There is a fellow on here going by the handle of Lugerdoc. I don't know him personally but by his posts and PMs I would sure give him a try first off. He probably knows more by accident than some locals do on purpose.
3) If you choose to send the gun anywhere to get it worked on be sure and check shipping regulations. Even though it is old and classed as a Curio and Relic a person holding a Federal Firearms License is needed. If you talk to Lugerdoc he can set you straight on all that.

I think $250~$300 is an honorable offer.
