WWI German 1916 Dated Erfurt Luger Pistol with WWII Holster

This is an excellent example of a military Luger pistol as manufactured by the Erfurt Arsenal. These were the standard pistol used by all German forces from 1914-1945. The top of the chamber area is marked 1916 for the date of manufacture and the front toggle assembly is marked "ERFURT" for the German Arsenal where it was produced. The left side of the barrel extension has the Crown over Script proofs next to the German Imperial acceptance proof. The underside and top area of the barrel has the standard barrel markings and Erfurt acceptance proofs. It has the last two digits of the serial number on all the small parts. The pistol has the correct wood base, nickel plated magazine that is numbered to the pistol. This pistol has the standard rough, wartime Erfurt machined finish and wartime blue as compared to the DWM luger and has the correct straw color on the small parts. It is complete with a standard WWII late production German luger holster. The holster is marked on the back "gcx/1941" with a single WaA665 Waffenamt with "PO8" marked in the upper right hand corner.

ConditionExcellent overall with 95% of the original blue finish showing wear on the edges and high spots overall such as the left front edge of the muzzle, the side plate hump, the front edges of the frame rails. The grips are in excellent condition with minor handling marks. It has matching numbers on all the parts. The holster is very good overall showing wear and heavy cracking on top of the flap and down the magazine pouch from field use. The stitching is tight overall with the very toe area being collapsed. The markings are clear and sharp.
