Vopo Luger Mauser Banner

Warhogg · 10-12-2008, 02:52 PM

With such a nice day out today I snapped a few pics of my nice newly aquired Vopo Luger from Ed Tinker. He really hooked me up on this fine specimen

It's a Mauser Banner 1942 dated gun. It has a Nazi Eagle -L on the right frame. It looks like it once had a sear safety since there's the hole there. I assume it's a former Nazi police issued gun? All the parts appear to match except the togge pin. It came with two matching mags, holster including the loading tool. I exchanged a spare set of vintage luger grips for the "photo shoot". She takes good pictures!

Nice gun.

What are the barrel markings? Crown/N or the original barrel markings?
I still think the VoPo grips are amongst the sexiest luger grips available.

The barrel is devoid of any markings other than 8,82 on the underside...

PLEASE read this post that is a "sticky" at the top of the New Collectors forum about why your photos need to be posted HERE instead of a place like photobucket...
