INTERWAR DWM German LUGER PISTOL 7.65x21mm P.08 C&R
Forced to 7.65mm by the TREATY of VERSAILLES
Description: INTERWAR DWM German LUGER PISTOL 7.65x21mm P.08 C&R Forced to 7.65mm by the TREATY of VERSAILLES Here we present a C&R German DWM Luger (Deutsche Waffen-und Munitionsfabriken) Pistole Parabellum, made circa the 1930s in Berlin. Basing his design off Hugo Borchardt’s seminal C93, Georg Luger successfully brought Borchardt’s work to practical fruition. While finding buyers for the C93 seemed an exercise in futility, the new Luger Pistol found many countries eager to test it and even adopt it. In 1900 the United States ordered 1,000 Lugers in 7.65x21mm Parabellum, or .30 Luger, for infantry and cavalry trials. It received pushback from soldiers that said the caliber was too small and the firearm itself was unreliable. Which, in turn, led to DMW developing the 9mm caliber version of the Luger shortly thereafter. During the interwar period between World War I and World War II, most Lugers were chambered in 7.65mm due to the restrictions imposed by the Treaty of Versailles by the Allies. Although, as Germany neared World War II in the late 1930s, they weren’t paying much attention to the Treaty of Versailles anymore. That’s when DWM began chambering their pistols back in the larger 9x19mm cartridge. There are many variations in this field of collecting, but relatively few major changes in overall design from beginning to end. The Luger is certainly one of the most iconic firearms in history, made so by its association with Germany during both World Wars. The overall condition is very good. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The grips are solid and in great shape. The magazine base and grip panels are properly unnumbered. This pistol has two different serial numbers: the toggle and barrel match and the rest of the parts match the frame. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 3-3/4 inches. Caliber: 7.65x21mm (.30 Luger) Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2035 #230175 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
