The early guns came without hold opens. Some military guns had them added, some never did. But it certainly suggests that yours is an early gun. Grip safety?
Work on those pictures, it ain't rocket science, but can be frustrating the first time, but is very important. dju |

There's a quick & dirty 'posting pics' guide here -
http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthread.php?t=22994 The forum may not allow you to post pics until you post a couple more times...just post more info to this thread and keep trying to attach pics...

Sounds like an early 1908 commercial.
