French Luger

[OLIAR15]

Went to the LGS to deliver some old Swiss rifles and pick up some old ammo.

He had something special to show me : a Mauser Luger made under the French occupation in 1945 with a matching number magazine. This is from the second batch made, serial numbers from 200 to 500 approx. made. Many of them went to Indochina.

Price is consistent with rarity, $ 4300 (and no I’m not buying it, just showing it here).

Some more info on those rare pistols here :

I suppose but I don’t know, it belongs to the LGS. And makes a nice background
