New to forum - 1st Luger question

ssgdigital · 06-19-2010, 12:38 AM

Hello All, I am new to this forum, but not a new shooter. I have been into guns all of my life and work in a gunshop, shoot competition (Uspsa-IDPA-Icore-3gun-steel challenge-Pro am, etc.). So basically I have a major love for guns.

Ok enough about myself. The first gun I ever wanted was a Luger and after hundreds of guns later, I found one. I've always had interest in the 3rd reich and now I own the gun i've sought after more than anything else (2nd choice is a H&K MP5SD - yeah right dream on).

I know this isn't a collector by no means. The serial numbers do not match, but it's in good shape, great bore and is a solid shooter. My friend wanted $950 for it, but needed cash, so he took $800.00 for it.

I have been searching this forum and cannot find any of the marks on this gun anywhere on the forum.

The top says 1936 on what I would call the "slide" (yes i'm dumb on luger names). The part that holds the ejector is stamped 1936 and there are some weird markings on the barrel and right side that I couldn't ID from looking on this sight.

I know pics would be best but it takes a magnafying glass to read them. Is there any link that might have all of the proof marks listed?

Thanks so much in advance.
