1916 DWM Luger Artillery
Unfortunately I can't give detailed information about this one. However I have a 1915 DWM Luger Artillery, photos of her, I will share later.
By the way, I live and work in Turkey. All the Luger photos I will share here will be belonging to Luger's which I saw/touched in Turkey. I looked for some special marks in both 1915 and 1916 Artillery Luger's which might bond them to a special contract Ottoman with DWM. Unfortunately, I haven't seen any. If you believe that some of the marks are unusual, please tell me. |

Odd to see the fine tune front and rear sights on a 1916?

Hi Evren, Welcome to the forum! Thanks for posting those excellent photos of your 1916 Artillery. Your gun appears to be in original, but well-worn condition, all except for those grips. They look as if they have been re-checkered and lacquered. I don't see any evidence of non German markings. Regards, Norm
