This is an excellent example of a DWM Artillery Luger issued in 1917. Comes with three non-matching magazines. Fitted with a very good set of matching numbered wood grips. The bore has very good rifling with a bright bore.

The adoption of the Lange Pistole 08 or LP 08, known as the "Artillery Luger", was authorised by the Kaiser on 2 July 1913. This P08 variation was equipped with a 200 mm (7.9 in) barrel, an 8-position tangent rear sight (calibrated to 800 meters (870 yd)). When set for long range use the rear sight element visibly moves to the left to compensate for spin drift.
