Erfurt p08 1917
Did all the Erfurt p08 made in 1917 have wood bottom magazines?

I thought so. I encountered one with a " matching" serial number, aluminum bottom mag.Looks "bogus" to me.

I suppose a 1917 COULD have ended up with a matching aluminum bottom if it became a Weimar or Police pistol. Do/can you show what it looks like? Does it have the serial and a # 1 or # 2? It was ORIGINALLY made and came with wooden bottoms.

But, Jerry, one must wonder if the original wood bottoms mags on this Luger 'identified' as being plastic or alum.

A few photos of the gun would help. In order to search for police history, we'll be looking for the sear or magazine safety and certain markings.
