Manufactured in Germany, this Luger lacks both the assorted "crown" proof marks and any "GERMANY"/"MADE IN GERMANY" nomenclature; the former would be needed for domestic or European sales, and the latter would be required on Lugers destined for the United States, leaving a bit of mystery regarding where this Luger has been. Blade front and notch rear sights, with a blank chamber, "DWM" on the front toggle link, and (minus the magazine) external numbers are matching overall. The lower safety area is marked "GESICHERT", with "GELADEN" on the left side of the extractor. The unnumbered grips are checkered, with a combination of straw color and fiery blue on the small parts. The magazine is nickel finished, with a "7,65" marked alloy base.

Very fine, with 98% of the professionally restored blue finish showing some polishing marks, bright edge wear, spotting concentrated on the muzzle and in the bright areas, and mild handling marks. The straw colors are dark but present, with some high point wear. The grips are very fine, with a few light dings and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
