Here's one..."This was a WW1 GERMAN Luger that was captured by a BRITISH SOLDIER & brought back to England as a war trophy!! It does not get much cooler then that!!"

I think the German soldiers' widow might disagree...

Actually, it is more likely the Luger was imported commercially to Britain after the war. That would be why it has British proof marks. What is that funky mark behind the German proofs on the cannon? Also bad photos are usually intentional,

Condition "Fine"? If they meant badly NPRF, maybe so.

Jeez it's over $1.1k now. Life is crazy.
