Description:
1917 ARTILLERY LUGER DWM Model 1914
Pistol Stock & Holster Rig
LATE WORLD WAR I
8-Inch Barreled Pistol w Detachable Shoulder Stock
The Luger is certainly one of the most iconic firearms in history, made so by its association with Germany during both World Wars. The top of the chamber is Great War dated “1917”. The top of the toggle is marked “DWM”. The right side of the frame bears German military acceptance marks.
The adoption of the Lange Pistole, aka the “Artillery Luger”, was authorized by the Kaiser on July 2, 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)) and a board-type shoulder stock with an attached leather holster. In the event of close combat, the pistol was intended to be used as a carbine with the shoulder stock attached to a lug mounted on the heel of the pistol frame. When set for long range use the rear sight element visibly moves to the left to compensate for spin drift. This pistol was intended for use by German artillery units who could not be encumbered by the long and heavy K.98 rifle.
The overall condition is fine. The action is strong and tight. The bore is mirror bright. All numbers match. Both grips have retained sharp checkering with a small chip on the left grip in upper corner adjacent to safety. This example showcases a fine adjustment front sight blade and tangent rear sight. The shoulder stock, artillery pattern holster, takedown tool, and bore rod are all in very nice shape. In Fine original condition.
