Found an unproofed .30 Luger for auction
Seller claims it might be experimental because it only has a serial number at the end of the breech. No other number marks or proofs in the photos.
anyone venture a guess on the type/model? Link to the auction page HERE |

Re: Found an unproofed .30 Luger for auction
Wasn't this the pistol that showed up a while back on one of the auctions and the owner would not give any information on it? Those look like proofs on the left side of the receiver, but can't see them well enough to tell what they are. The pistol is a long frame Model 1906 which appears to have had the barrel changed.

I have a real unproofed unserial numbered 1908 Commercial that I bought quite a while back. It only has some numbers stamped on the back of the toggle. However mine is a Lunch Box special which appears to made up of parts taken out of the factory. I bought it for the Hand Carved grips which have scroll work on them. The Luger doesn){kind=icon}

Re: Found an unproofed .30 Luger for auction
Hi Folks,
Based on what I *think* I can see in the photos, I'd guess it to be one of the 1906 Commercial variations. Serial number appears to be in the 27,000 range, what looks like C/N proofs visible on barrel and barrel extension, DWM on toggle, and what looks like "GERMANY" on barrel extension above take down lever. Just my guess, offered entirely FWIW... Best regards, Kyrie |
