WWI Lugers

wlyon · 02-16-2012, 09:30 PM

1st issue all matching - one matching mag - with G. Schroters holster - no date (first four pictures)
Serial #1541a

1910 Dwm all matching except mag - with Reichsrevolver holster dated 1910 - grip strap 6.U. (6Ulanen) (last six pictures) Serial #3189 c

Mostly am trying to figure out this new camera. Doesn't look like I am there yet.

Bill, that's a beautiful pair.

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

Really a beautiful set. Great mag and holster....just beautiful. I think your photography skills are great. Nice clear photos and closeups. Well done!!

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

Well, I certainly see nothing wrong with your picture taking! Very nice!!

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.

Very nice showing there Bill. John
