luger

Have a German Luger with the DWM on the toggel. The S/N is 77xx and the only stamps on are "Made in Germany" and the proof mark. I need more information on the gun please. Blue book lists it as being made in 1900. The cal. is .30. On the front of sight is a "D". There is a loop mark below the S/N on the front of the fram. The number 14 is on the rear of the gun just below the rear sight. This is all that I can find on the gun. Should I be looking for more marks and is there a sight some place for just Lugers?

Was there a Italian manufacturer of lugers in and around 1944?
I have a chance to get a luger that I'm told was made 1944 by some Italian mfg I have not seen it yet and was locking for info before wasting time.
Thanks for any help. ~ Gary

No real questions, just a mention that today is the anniversary of Georg Luger's birthday. FYI: Luger P08 pistol inventor"Fast is good, but accuracy is everything.."Wyatt Warp

I recently acquired a Luger DWM. Most of the serial numbers,the proof markings and the DWM logo have white in the letering. What is this? Is it desireable to have this white? Who put it there? any help appreciated.

I have a Luger 7.65 marked DWM 98% with holster. The safety release is marked in english SAFE. Also a holster and it does not have a clip holder. Serial 901xx all parts with matching numbers. This gun has been in my family about 60 years and has only been test fired during that time.

I've got this Luger. Under the barrel and on the trigger guard, it has the number 23XX. Is this the serial number? If so, can anybody tell me what model this weapon is or what year it was produced? If not, then where can I find the serial number?

I run with scissors.

I now have another question that I hope will be acceptable to those in this group. I'm seeking information and guidance as to value of this piece:

whats the going rate for a 1916 luger

gunsgkp

Anybody know for sure if 1900 DMC American Eagle Luger made a presintation luger (nickel,with gold plating on the trigger,top of the toggle mag. releise,safty)

Of course I'm out of my mind. It's dark and scary in there.

nmyers

No. Likely the person has an Italian manufactured gun chambered in 9mm Luger. Still worth a look, though.

Italian Luger?
Not that I ever heard of.

I guess a tv reporter might mistake a Glisenti or Brixia for a Luger, what with the slant grip and naked barrel.

Or, as nmyers says, a Beretta, Tanfoglio, Bernardelli, etc. in the caliber.

There have been replicas made in a number of countries, including the U.S. Not sure about Italy, though?

1944 was when the Second World War was raging in Italy. To the best of my knowledge, the only handguns made during that timeframe. Were the various Beretta's. They were chambered for the .32 & .380 cartridges.

Perhaps the person selling selling the pistol is confusing one of the Berettas made for the German's, with a Luger? I have run across this type of misconception many times in the past. To a person unfamiliar with military handguns, all handguns are Lugers.[:D]

Gilsenti 1910 was used in WW1 & WW2. It looks a little like a Luger & is a 9MM, but not the 9MM a Luger uses. Much lower power as is blow-back IRCC.

This is what a Italian Glisenti pistol looks like. Got the photo off the net. They also used a earlier similar version called a Brixia, which is very uncommon.
