Beautiful 1910 DWM (even if the side plate is a replacement). To top it all off, it is marked to the Command/Stab of the XXI Armeekorps: a rare and desirable unit stamp. I have added your Luger to the data base below.

I thought it was a beauty too. I offered $1000 for it on the Luger Forum (silly me) if anyone had any doubts about its authenticity, even with a replaced sideplate. This is one of those pieces that some would turn up their nose at because it is "force matched", without taking into consideration the totality of the piece, the rarity of the unit marking and the probable timeframe of the sideplate replacement (perhaps when the holdopen was added?). I think Aaron has made a very fortunate find.

Very nice photos of the luger, in your third photo front of trigger guard is that the remnants of an eagle or is it scratches.Anyway very nice old girl you picked up for your collection.

I have been trying to decipher those marks but can't figure out if they are anything more than tool marks. In any event, they are under the finish. Here's a closer view:

Aaron The marks I was referring to are on the front of the trigger guard.

Just a little tool mark, nothing noteworthy.
