1906 Commercial NAZI ENGRAVED
OK, I hear you; an '06 commercial with Nazi engraving??? Can't be. Here is the story:
I have a very good friend who is a Luger collector/dealer. He is foreign to computers as much as Columbus would have been to a GPS. With that said, he asked me put this Luger on our forum to get opinions. He acquired it at a gunshow on the north side of New Orleans. He told me an elderly gentleman, (looked to be in his 80's) walked into the show, went straight to his table and asked him if would be interested in buying his Luger. He said he acquired this Luger way back just after World War II when he lived in Germany. He told my friend that the person he got it from had an SS tattoo on his wrist and that it was it his personal side arm during the war. OK sounds like Hollywood; maybe so, but it sure does explain the Nazi engraving. Oh, BTW, the extractor is not in English and there is not a GERMANY proof or any other proof. There is the word "Germany" on the small medallion on the grips, but I would not consider this a proof mark. Opinions welcome please. Thanks, Mike |
