·Hi; Just picked up this Luger at the Vancouver, WA gunshow last weekend. Matching as far as it goes but missing the side plate and grips. Serial number 1098. Cut for hold open and added a matching one. It's kind of ratty but I don't mind. About half in half blue and patina. Been dropped while open and rear of frame and barrel extention on left dinged but what the heck. It was used in the Great War. Anyway, is there a matching service where I might find a number 98 Eurfurt side plate and maybe even grips? I know it out of the collector class for condition issues but that is not to serious for me. I kind of like the battlefield pick up look anyway. I cann't find my copy of Jeff Knowles book on the Unit Markings. Any ideas on these? Thanks Doug
