I found a Luger today that I have a chance to purchase. Talking with a local gentleman, who was a cold war tank driver, who is looking to consolidate his collection hinted that he had a Luger that he would sell. He couldn't remember most of the stuff he had but I went over there to take a look. In the first safe we had some Colt colander 1911's, S&W .357 mag revolver (first year the FBI was issued them according to him) and a lot of rifles.
3 Rifles I picked up were really nicely done sporterized Mausers. His brother was an enthusiast and built these. I know we don't like sporterized Mausers but these were really nicely done. He actually gave me a publication by his brother on "How to custom build your Mauser".
Anywho - The Luger
I don't know a lot about them other than it is on my list. This one is a 1937 BYF looks to be matching. It has 1 matching mag and another that looks more commercial. It has black grips and some of the war eagles are present. It does however look like some have been peened and I cannot tell if it has an import mark on the underside of the barrel.
Thoughts? It is in my possession and I can get pictures if needed.
