1916 DWM Shooter

Doug, I haven't a clue on that barrel. It is obviously of recent manufacture, and does not conform to the appearance of a standard Luger design, which is strange. The front sight appears to be a standard 18 rib Luger sight but with the white insert applied to it. The underside of it has only a capitol "G" on it. There is no indication that the barrel 'band' of the front sight is soldered to the barrel, it appears to have been pressed on. This is the second mystery rework that I have in my collection. I will post some pictures of my Bulgarian shooter later. By the way the blueing is consistant through out, so the barrel was there when it was refinished. The blueing is so dark that it is actually a deep black.
