1st Luger Help

rich Wieners · 11-06-2013, 04:09 PM

Purchased my first Luger. It's a military 9MM 1917 DWM. Seems to have an interesting history, judging by the proofs on it. Can I get help evaluating what I have? Thanks in advance.

Hi Rich,

Welcome aboard! For starters, you will need to post extensive, clear, crisp photos of your pistol overall and close ups of all markings. This is the only way the combined knowledge of this site can focus on your gun and make helpful comments.

Post these in the appropriate section and you will receive expert opinions at no charge to you!!
