I doubled my Luger collection!

Eugene, DWM and Erfurt stopped manufacturing Lugers then. Roughly, DWM was re-structured to become BKIW, and Erfurt tooling was taken over post-WWI by Simson. Thus, the "original" manufacturers were supplanted by different entities. This is why some consider everything made afterward to be reproductions!

To me Erfurts are already reproductions of the Luger.
