This is a fine example of a late production DWM Model 1902 Luger carbine with its original matching numbered walnut stock. These carbines were an early attempt to a produce a light weight rifle substitute to compete on the European market. There were a total of 2500 of this model ever produced in two serial number blocks with this specific pistol being in the second block. The unique feature of these early model are the 11 3/4 inch barrel with a detachable checkered forearm, which contains a small spring actuator, that engages the lug on the underside of the barrel which helps cycle the carbine during firing, due to the heavier barrel. The top of the chamber is blank and the front toggle has the standard DWM logo. The frame is the early style with a flat mainspring, grip safety, dished toggles, and recessed/flat breech bolt. It is fitted with the correct three position rear sight (adjustable from 100-300 meters) and a ramp front sight. The full serial number (23927) is correctly marked on the frame extension, and the underside of the barrel. The last two digits of the serial number marked on the various parts. It is fitted with a set of checkered walnut grips that are unnumbered with the left having a single "*" proof on the back side. It is complete with its matching shoulder stock that has a black horn buttplate. It is fitted with its original attaching iron numbered on top "927" with a set of sling swivels correctly mounted on the underside of the stock and the small forend. It also comes with one original magazine that has the unnumbered wood base with a nickel plated body.
