Produced for import into the United States, this Model 1906 American Eagle Luger is fitted with a pair of Ideal grips. Developed before the introduction of the integral back strap stock lug on the Model 1908, the Ideal grips consist of smooth walnut panels secured to metal baseplates which are slotted on the rear to accept a set of mounting hooks for Ideal's combination holster and telescoping metal shoulder stock. When DWM introduced their own "board stock" arrangement, the Ideal quickly went out of style. Brass bead front and notch rear sights with the American Eagle on the chamber, "DWM" monogram on the toggle, and "GERMANY" import mark on the front of the frame. The pistol is numbered in the "commercial style" with matching external numbers, fitted with niter blue and straw color small parts, "LOADED" extractor, polished "safe" position, a back strap grip safety, the aforementioned grips and a military style blue magazine with "7464/u" numbered alloy base.

Fine with 75% of the faded original blue finish showing some bright edge wear, minor dings on the trigger guard and extensive deep patches of pitting present on right side of frame and barrel extension and light handling marks overall. The grips are very good with some chipping around the safety, tool marks on the screws and mild dents. Stock not included. Mechanically excellent.
