Jan,

1937 S/42, sn 3513-ns, SE/63 SE/63, MTP

This gun is not pristine but it is mechanically sound. It has a moderate amount of light pitting and a couple of rough spots caused by rust. The bluing is thinning and turning to a brown patina on the grip strap and parts of the lower frame. The bore of the gun is good, there is some pitting in the bore, but the lands and grooves are strong. The best I can tell the waffen marks are 83 and 63 on the receiver. The grips fit good and are in very good shape, but are darkened with age and oil. All parts seem to be properly numbered and waffen marks are correct. The magazine has the aluminum base with the correct serial number and is waffen marked 83.

Edward Tinker · 12-14-2007, 11:56 AM

to help provide data, you'd need to tell the order of the markings, its serial number, its date, etc... See examples above

Please pardon the intrusion, but I've been trying to get in touch with you about a different luger. Please see your private message.

Thanks.

I'm correcting my previous data (see above). The first acceptance mark seems to be SE/63 but a closer look shows it is SE/83.

So:
1938 S/42, SE/83, SE/63, MTP, sn 2444i, no matching mag (still searching for one).

This gun is not pristine but it is mechanically sound. Serial number is 2286n. It has a moderate amount of light pitting and a couple of rough spots caused by rust. The bluing is thining and turning to a brown patina on the grip strap and parts of the lower frame. The bore of the gun is good, there is some pitting in the bore, but the lands and grooves are strong. The waffen marks are 83 and 63 on the receiver, best I can tell. Seems to be the droop wing eagle on the receiver and perhaps the stick wing eagle on the barrel, it's a little faint. The grips fit good and are in very good shape, but are darkened with age and oil. All parts seem to be properly numbered and waffen marks are correct. The magazine has the aluminum base with the correct serial number and is waffen marked 83.

Hope this helps, not real sure about the eagles, barr

I feel like a full on GOMER...It's only now that I realize in my haste to participate, I completely omited my pistols S/N, which of course renders my previous submission utterally useless!

Let's try it again...
1937 S/42 SE/63 SE/63 MTP 3746a!!!

Zamo · 01-05-2008, 12:32 AM

Oh, uh...and all blued...not strawed...but the previous pic illustrates that.
(I sure hope none of you realize this lack of putting all the data correctly together in one post, is really an elaborate scheme of mine, designed explicitly to drive my # of posts up, and has NOTHING to do with the fact that I can't seem to follow directions very well)
