This is an immaculate condition example of the Iconic German Luger. The Luger may have been as influential in military history as the equally famous American Colt 1911. The Pistol Parabellum 1908 abbreviated as P.08 used an almost flawless design. The design was an improvement of the 1893 Borchardt C-93 that featured a toggle locking recoil-operated system. Georg Luger designed the infamous pistol in 1898 with production starting in 1900. The first lugers where adopted by the Swiss in May 1900 who gained licenses to manufacture Luger at an arms factory in Bern. The Germans soon saw the potential of the luger and adopted it accordingly. The luger served as the primary sidearm for the German military through WW1 and WW2 until it was only partially replaced by the Walther P38. This example is a beautiful piece of history. Dated 1941 and manufactured by Mauser it could well have seen WW2 Wartime use. This is an exceptionally rare example with less than 2000 ever been produced. It was a special contract that Mauser had to produce a Luger for both commercial sale and police/public defence use. Its contact did not last long at all as the demand for military proofed standard lugers became increasingly high. It is in fantastic condition with most of its original finish. Undamaged grips and working action with all matching numbers except the magazine. Complete with deactivation certificate.
