I recently came across my fathers Luger pistol and I know nothing about them. Would anyone be able to help? I will try to describe as best I can. The pistol has the following markings on it. The numbers 1920 1917 on the top. Also, the letters byf followed by the number 21. These are all on the top of the pistol. On the left hand side the number 8707 appears along with another number 74. On the opposite side there are four designs in a row which I am unable to describe as they are so small in size to see. I thought that I would try to find a magnifying glass to view them. oh! I just found the word Gesichert under what I would think would be the safty. Any help you might have would be appreciated. Thanks Carol
