Hello to all.
What do you think about this.
In my mind the toogle is ok, but the 1916 marking?????

Hi,

It would appear that the receiver and the toggle didn't start their life together. Could well be that a bulgarian luger was repaired with a WW1-surplus receiver, or the other way around.

The "5" above the "1916" chamber date is a bit unusual as well...is it not ?

Does the frame have a regular lanyard staple, or a lanyard ring at the bottom of the grip?

I saw this one on egun.de.

The upper part is being offered for sale as a separate set. There's also a frame for sale.
The frame has no visible lanyard ring on the back (bad photo though)

Hello to all
And tanks for the answer.
Yes I have see this on egun, but I have found strange the date and the number 5 on the barrel. I have contact the seller, but I has become no answer. And as say our friend M. G. van Vlimmeren: "the receiver and the toggle didn't start their life together".
Many thanks and best regards

It looks very good to me, seems to have plenty of character with the blue gone. I guess beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. How much was the selling price if I might ask? Good Luck with it, wish it was mine.
