1920 .30 cal DWM Luger?

Hello all!

I found this Luger in my gun safe. The previous owner tolld me it is .30 caliber. It had no date stamp, SN 1368h, two c/N proof marks with one on the right side face plate and one beneath the barrel, no military acceptance or other proof marks, "GESCIHER" under the safety lever., all matching except magazine with no SN, and magazine with wooden bottom. I think it is a commercial 1920 model Luger.

The condition is excellent so this makes me think that it has been reblued. However, there are halos around the numbers of the serial number stamp and the "GESCIHER" stamp shows metal within the letters.

I have included some best effort photos. My hands shake too much and the lighting is poor in my living room. If these are not good enough, I will try again.

Thanks!

Bob
