Description:
Inter-WORLD WARS Luger Pistol by DWM of Berlin
Chambered for the Original Luger Cartridge
Here we present a DWM Inter-World War Luger Pistol, made circa the 1920s in Berlin, Germany. 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. 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.
This DWM Inter-War Luger Pistol was made for export from Germany, quite likely to the United States. It was made of existing parts that would have gone into making a military sidearm during WWI had the war continued. DWM, in order to stay alive in some of the toughest economic conditions following the war, built pistols using new old stock and new stock parts to sell commercially both inside and outside Germany. This pistol features a military style number of “9330 i” on the barrel and frame. The rest of the numbering is of the commercial style, which is to say hidden. Commercial German proof marks “Crown/N” are found throughout. “GERMANY” is stamped on the left of the frame, which is another indicator that this was exported to the US. It was chambered for the original “Luger” cartridge, the .30 Luger or 7.65x21mm Parabellum, which is a great cartridge still available today.
The overall condition is near fine. The original blue finish is 65%. The straw colors are strong. The markings are clear. The serial numbers match. The magazine was originally that of a German military pistol. The bore is sharp and bright. The action is excellent. Here is a very nice, working example of the iconic Luger Pistol!
