MNWalther Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) For your consideration is this uncommon WWII German era police Luger. These 1942 chamber dated P.08s with the mauser banner are uncommon and highly sought after. I have a story that was given to me of how this pistol was “acquired” but no vets name to accredit it to. Luger is mostly matching, with the exception of the trigger which is serial number 34 as compared to he rest of the gun which is serial 33. Previous trigger was strawed blue, found an appropriate blued trigger to replace with and just one number away. Proper dark bluing and flat top 3 which was proper for this year. The FXO stamped magazine is matched to the gun with a “1” indicating it was the primary magazine and would be proper to a police Luger. Note the final 3 in the mag, I’m not sure if this was a flaw, erosion, forced restamp,etc. Grips are not numbered, but do have a “V” stamped inside. All other parts are matching with proper 33 serial down to the firing pin, please see photos. Barrel has nice rifling and grips are free of cracks. Some finish loss as show , I was told this is blood rust/outing from “acquisition”, I’m normally not inclined to believe story’s but gun in hand it’s convincing. Happy to provide extra pictures/ answer questions. Payment via F&F PayPal, USPS MO, personal check (5 business day hold) or cash if an OH resident and wish to meet in the Columbus area. SPF Please PM for pictures with an email or phone number too text, for some reason I cannot get them to load. Standard first, “I’ll take it”, followed by a timely PM.
