Greetings all,
I picked up this really awesome pistol recently and thought I would share it here. It's a WWII bring back German Luger with capture papers. The veteran was a P-47 fighter pilot during the war. He flew more than 50 combat missions over Europe and shot down a German ME-109 on his first mission. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air Medal for his service. The Luger itself is a WWI DWM manufactured pistol that was reworked and issued to a police unit in the Weimar era. It's all matching numbers, including the magazine! I love items with a name and history to them, and bring back guns with capture papers really fit the bill!
