DWM 1915 Dated Artillery Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol with Shoulder Stock and Holster

Fine adjustable blade front and tangent rear sights, with the "1915" date on the chamber, "DWM" on the front toggle link, and appropriate military proofs on the barrel, receiver, and breechblock. Numbers are matching overall, including on the sight components, magazine base, and the grip panels. Included with the lot is a hardwood shoulder stock (marked "4815" on the iron), a dark brown leather holster with gold accented stampings on the face, and lighter brown straps. Provenance: The Art Buchanan Collection

ConditionVery fine, with 85% plus original blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, scattered spotting, and mild edge wear and handling marks. 70% original straw colors remain. The grips are also very fine, with minor edge chips and a few dings on the otherwise crisp checkering. The stock is very good, with some cracking in the wood at the renumbered to match refinished iron, and the leather shows scuffing and cracking. Mechanically excellent.
