DWM Commercial

Came across this DWM Commercial at an attractive price. Mismatched side plate, so it’s a shooter, but other than that it’s in quite nice shape with a minty bore. 7.65 Parabellum, SAFE/LOADED:

Kyrie, what are the numbers on the lower edge of your current side plate? TH

Hi Tom,

Pic worth a 1000 words, etc.:

The rollmarks SAFE and LOADED would make it a bit more rare/expensive here for instance a similar one all matching and cal 7,65 Para is for sale at the equivalent price of about 2,300 $

Thank you for your comments – they were most welcome.

I was (I think) quite lucky on this Luger. I obtained it at auction, for $1,035 all told and delivered into my hands. The seller knew very little about Lugers but supplied enough photos of sufficient quality to develop am opinion that the gun was cosmetically in quite nice shape – and to show the mismatched side plate number. I knew the seral number range and took it on faith it would be marked SAFE/LOADED, which turned out to be the case.

I still have quite a bit of Finnish 7,65 Parabellum ammunition and look forward to using some of it.

Best,

Kyrie
