Desirable DWM Model 1920 Luger Carbine with Shoulder Stock

This is a very nice example of a post-World War I, DWM Model 1920 Luger Carbine that is complete with a carbine style walnut stock and detachable forend. The 1920 Carbines were originally assembled on a very limited basis by DWM in the post WWI era, with all being sold in the United States through two or three major importers; A. F. Stoeger, Abercrombie and Fitch or Bannermans. They were typically assembled on reworked, WWI military Luger pistols in a long barreled carbine configuration that was fitted with a carbine type stock. This example is a recreation of a 1920 "long-barreled" variation. It has a blank chamber area with the script "DWM" logo on the front toggle with the safety and extractor, marked "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" respectively. This barrel has the distinctive 1920 long-barreled configuration, (not the carbine style) that does not have the barrel mounted rear sight. The barrel is unmarked and the left side of the barrel extension has the 1920 era "Crown/N" commercial proof, with no other markings. It is complete with one current commercial magazine with a unmarked wooden base. The front of the frame has been fitted with a correct style forend hanger which has been fitted with a very nice 1920 style walnut forend. Also included with this pistol is a 1920 era walnut Luger carbine style stock.

ConditionFine as period refinished with 99% of the deep blue finish overall. The markings are clear and distinct and the edges square and nicely polished. The grips are in very good condition with visible checkering, showing wear across the tops of the checkering with a small repair under the safety lever. The various smaller parts retain 98% of their restrawed colors overall. The forend and stock are both in very good condition with a nice medium brown walnut color overall, with very nice, well done checkered patterns on both pieces showing light wear across the tops of the checkering.
