Description:

This is a very early post-WWII Krieghoff Luger pistol as assembled in 1945. The later Krieghoff pistols were termed "PX" Lugers as they were assembled/produced for sales to the GIS in the German run PXs. This specific pistol is totally void of any serial number except the rear toggle which is numbered "73", and has only two proof marks; a single "Eagle/2" firing proof on the underside of the barrel and a late 1944, Luftwaffe 2nd style "Eagle 2" acceptance/inspection proof mark on the right side of the barrel extension; both indicative of left over parts found in the factory that were assembled into this pistol, probably by GIS at the time the plant taken over by the Allies. It is fitted with a set of earlier brown checkered Mauser type plastic grips are unmarked on the back sides. There is no magazine with this Luger and it has a dark all salt blued type finish to include the smaller parts that were typically straw colored.

Rating Definition:

Arsenal refurbished with 98% of the dull blued finish overall showing minor edge wear only. A fairly unique early post-war assembled Luger pistol.
