Description:

This is an example of a very early production DWM Model 1902 American Eagle Luger pistol chambered in the "9 mm" Luger cartridge that is fitted with the scarce short fat barrel configuration. This model was a continuation of the earlier 1902 commercial Luger with these specifically intended for the U.S. market with only 600-700 total being made with the fat barrel. This pistol has the new style frame with coil leaf springs and no stock lug, recessed breech block, dished toggles with toggle locks and grip safety. The barrel extension is also the short old model with the top of the chamber area with the American Eagle roll markings with the front toggle marked with the "DWM" logo. Serial numbered in a commercial manner with the full serial number "22726" on the front of the frame, and underside of the barrel, with the partial serial number "26" on the various small parts. The lower safety position is unmarked and polished bright with the extractor correctly unmarked. This Luger is complete with two original wood base, nickel plated magazines, both are marked with a script "Cal 9m/m" on the bottom.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as refinished with 95% of the restored blue finish overall, with wear on the edges and high spots with restamped clear sharp markings. The various small parts retain 75% of their original straw colors overall. The walnut grips are in very fine condition with nice distinct checkering showing minor handling marks overall. Mechanically functions, but recoil spring on toggle assembly is weak.
