Product Information

This is a First World War, Imperial German army Luger. Dated 1917, it was original manufactured by Erfurt as an Artillery Luger. The notch or flat in the frame, forward of the date stamp is where the rear sight assembly would sit . This notch/flat is only found for Artillery Luger frames. Another interesting feature is the "RC"  (Revision Commission) inspectors stamps. It was applied at the factory to imperial P08 parts during production and indicated a flawed but useable part. It is most commonly seen on Erfurt Lugers. This particular Luger may well have started production life as an Artillery but left the factory as a standard Luger? It still has its original matched magazine and straw blued parts. All parts are matched except the side plate. The regimentally markings are also very intriguing. It reads "6 / 88.5 ". This is still being researched by us. All numbers are matched except for the side plate. Both grips and the magazine are original and numbered to the pistol. Deactivated with a working action it can be cocked and dry fired.
