Identify LP08 mix rework, no date

As Don says, it's a real mixmaster. The frame is WW2 era Mauser. The receiver could be anything as there's no proof marks to go by and no date. The barrel may or may not be an original Artillery or LP-08 barrel. Without markings, it's hard to tell. The front sight is not the fine tune type and the fine tune rear sight lacks the last two digits of the serial number and doesn't have an Erfurt stamp. The rear sight looks a bit crude to me. The only thing Erfurt about it seems to be the toggle train.

It's a shooter grade Luger so shoot it and enjoy it for what it is. You'll have the same shooting experience as if it were an all matching gun that just left the factory.
