My first Luger

Brew_Ha_Ha · 02-01-2003, 03:23 PM

Got my first luger at a gunshow today, 1920 Police Rework. All matching one potentiallly matching mag and one definite matching mag. Wanted a shooter, got a shooter. And it looks good. Only one rust spot about an 8th on an inch big. Shot it today, alittle finicky. But im still looking for the right grain of 9mm)so far 115 grain worked best). Thanks for all the info you people provided and helped me in my first purchase.

Great, pretty nice and sounds like a shooter and collectable at the same time?

I do have some questions... Under the barrel there are two numbers 8,82. What does these numbers mean. And on the right side of the Luger where the markings are there the letters E.c(or G cant really tell).C.S.A, what do these letters mean, and under that it saysN. Auken. N.J.
What does all this mean?

Brew; 8,82 is the land diameter, and the other marks seem to be Import marks,
