Great guns Bill! You don't get to see too many 1st Issues with matching magazines. Congratulations. Best regards, Norm

Bill, nice Lugers! Please "change" the holsters. This type of altered Reichsrevolver holsters does not go with cavalry Lugers. This typ holster according a 1909 order is for all units which are not mounted.
Thanks for showing! Best regards Klaus |

Great pics Bill
I didn't not realize that 4" barrel Luger's where issued with the large font wooden bottom mags. Figured that was only Navy Luger's. Thanks! Bob

Just lovely Bill. I go along with Norme's comment...I am in awe that you have found a First Issue with a matching magazine. I've never seen one.
