Default Imperial Luger Tools

Hi All,

I was just looking over my Imperial Tools and noticed that two had the same crown/letter.

That started me to think, is there any letter that is rare?
Are there letters that are common?

Congrats indeed.

Hello Sergio,

I bought one last week in a gun shop. The one that is in Norme's first post in this thread. I don't know anything about it yet. What can you or anyone else tell me about it?

Hi Joseph, Sorry to be late responding, I was overseas. The two lobed crown/D mark is the earliest German military inspection mark known and is the same distinctive mark that was used on the very first German Army test guns ( formerly known as Danzig Test). If yours is indeed identical to the one shown it is very rare, with only two known examples.
Regards, Norm

It is Swidish and only for the Luger. I will take a picture to show how it is to handle.

Norme,

Thanks for getting back to me on this. It turns out mine is a 3 lobed tool so it was close, but not the "Jackpot" I was curious about. However, I am a little more enlightened regarding tool marks thanks to your posts, Lugerholster Repair and Dave Lindsey.

Best Regards,

Joe G.
