Dragoon P-08
Picked up this Luger over 12 years ago. Some of the members may find it interesting.
1910 DWM, all numbers match. Came with matching early style mag. Unit marked: 14.D.4.10. Grips are numbered to this gun. Extra mag is not matching this weapon, but it has the early style numbers. It came in an excellent brown 1911 dated holster that is also unit marked to the 14, D. Not too many of the unit marked Lugers are still in their unit marked holsters. Joe

Joe, Yes! VERY nice! Pretty much the peak with many fine attributes. Holster, unit marks, early date. A fine interesting historical artifact. Envy runs rampant!

Joe, that's a really great set. The unit marked holster really puts it at the top.

Guys
Thank you for your nice comments on this 1910. I have another 14 D marked pistol that I will post soon. It is just "happenstance" that I have two Lugers from the same small unit. Joe

Thank you for your nice comments. I bought this Luger with the holster in 1998. I have some other unit marked Luger that I will have to post. Joe
