DMW Luger P08 1918

Welcome Martin,

This P.08 is definitely military issue, as it is numbered in the military style and not the commercial manner. You purchased it for an incrediblly low price...what a bargain by our standards. The places where the blue has been removed definitely looks like dripping blood damage to me. I once owned a byf 41 Mauser with much the same problem across the top of the chamber and toggle.

...and your English is far superior to my Swedish (which is none

) Once again welcome to the forum.
