DWM Model 1923 Dutch Air Force Luger Pistol

This is a DWM manufactured Luger Pistol from the Netherlands Air Force sales contract of 4000 pistols that has a blue finish and straw colored small parts. The DWM monogram is located on the front toggle link. The safety lever area of the frame is marked "RUST" with a curved arrow pointing toward the upward (safe) position and "GELADEN" is marked on both sides of the extractor. The full serial number is located on the front of the frame and barrel underside, with the partial serial number (37) on the extension, takedown latch, side plate, sear bar, grip safety, and rear toggle link. The left side of the barrel extension is stamped with a crown/N proof and the right side has Dutch Air Force contract proof. An addition crown/N proof is marked on the barrel underside. Fitted with checkered walnut grips numbered to the gun. Magazine has a wood base and is unmarked.

ConditionVery good. The pistol retains most of the Arsenal refurbished blue finish with the balance between a smooth gray patina and a smooth brown patina. There is some minor pitting (mostly on the barrel). The small parts retain 30% of the straw color with the balance a smooth gray patina. The grips are very good with some minor nicks (more prevalent on the right panel) in the overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
