·I have always wanted a Luger and now one is on the way! It is marked 1913 Erfurt. Hopefully I can pick it up tommorrow, but in the meantime I was hoping you all might be able to give me a little info on it based on some pictures. The Gentleman I bought it from said that the top end was matching with the exception of the side plate, but that it did not match the frame. Also the takedown lever (if this is the correct term) is not checkered like all I have seen but looks to have a piece of wood fitted into it. He said the wood looked like it had been there for a long time. My questions are: How do you tell if the frame is contemporary to the top end and who made it. What's up with the wood on the take down lever. As there are no import markings is there any way to deduce if it was brought home after WW1 or WW2. I read somewhere about a safety sear modification in the early 30's, does this pistol have one? Does the finish look original or redone? And anything else anyone could enlighten me on would be very much appreciated. Thank you all very much.
