Description:

This is an excellent example of a rare late production, 1942 dated military contract Krieghoff P.08 Luger, that is complete with its original matching magazine. This series of luger falls into the serial number block of 11300 to 11800. The top of the chamber is marked 1942 with the front toggle correctly marked with the late production C-2 style Krieghoff toggle marking that has the smaller "C" style radii anchor with the left point of the anchor, slightly outside the letter "H" with the right point touching the bottom of the "K". The right side of the barrel extension has the 1st "Lwa" stage II early acceptance proof next to the stage II mid-proof, next to the final acceptance proof. The underside of the barrel is marked with: "881/LWa2/ 11375" numbered in the smaller numbered size. The right side of the breechblock has the correct Luftwaffe "Eagle/2" firing proof. It is fitted with the correct late production coarse checkered black plastic grips that are unmarked on the backside. As noted, it is complete with one matching magazines that has a blued magazine body marked "122/Eagle/37" (on the side) and the aluminum base stamped with only the serial number "11676".

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 98% of the original blue finish overall with just a hint of edge and high spot wear, blue loss on the side plate, thinning on the front and rear grip straps, and a hint of minor oxidation on the lower front grip strap. The smaller parts retain 75% of their straw color overall. The grips are in excellent condition. As noted, this rare late production Luger has all matching numbers including on the magazine.
