And bought these German pistols. They are all metal and will make great carry guns. I am going to order a double shoulder holster. Anybody know where I can have them chrome plated like all the German officer's
guns were???

Nice pair ricci!
The one on the right looks a bit like mine. Mine is dated 1918 and has the wooden buttons on the base plate. I hopes yours do well just to see what mine is worth!😊 Bob
Do they speak German?

Those look heavy and low capacity. Seems like a poor tradeoff.

Some will fall in love with life

Its getting hard to tell if you’re being ironic.
Words none of us ever expected anyone to say to Ricci...
Looks like he finally got a pair.
And these are steel, not plastic!
It's hard to tell if you're making a pun.

rumor has it if you get captured with one they will use it on you. best to be safe and just send them to me
Those are very nice.........I would suggest a Western style double holster rig !!!😛
Speaking of Chrome plating, I had the difficult task telling a friend his family treasures were not worth the many thousands of dollars he had been told all his life. His Grandfather fought in WWII and brought back a few Lugers, P38s, various different Walther PPK's and a few rifles.
When he returned home, he had them all Chrome Plated. It was too bad as the original pics of them before the plating showed they were really nice............😕
Getting wiser in your old age eh?? Those are cool.
Chrome plate with simulated pearls, with western holster rig to make the bestest possum bbq guns !🤭
It would be a lot cheaper to emulate that great American hero - Oddball. I remember him unsnapping his holster and readying his Luger for a quick draw when he, Joe and Kelly were facing down the Nazi tank. You just need goggles and a tanker cap and you would be all set.

Nice I always wanted one just because of the cool effect
But doubt it happens now
As for chrome plating
I told a coworker the bad news he had a real nice old 1911 colt chromed told me the same story it was a officers issued pistol .
I don't think he believed me but that was fine . Iam sure unless he found another sucker to buy the story . Any gun person or shop would deflated his story also
I would be interested in buying one if it just had a tactical rail under the barrel for lights and such.
I wud not crome plate them, too 'spensive. Steel wool takes a bit more time, but ya' kin probly do boff of 'em fer about tree bucks werth. Blak pant werks purty gud to if ya' wanna bring back the culler later. I did my 30 30 with wun can frum Walmart an it onley cost 99 sents an I got enuff leff ober to tutch up the skratches in ma's 'ol Chebby frum them huntin' trips on Wolverton Mountain wen I got stuk an hadda tern round in the manzineata buk brush.
You don't need a holster for those Ricci! You need a special helmet and learn how to hold a cigarette "German Style" 😁
New York reload might be a good option for a carry method.
NAW, I bought more Glocks.
So that's where all the recycled Tupperware goes! Bob
Well make up your mind already.

My dad had a couple lugers when I was a kid.
