WORLD WAR I 1914 Dated ERFURT Arsenal P.08 LUGER Pistol GERMAN C&R
9x19mm Great War Imperial German Sidearm
Here we present a World War I “1914” Dated P.08 Luger Pistol, made at the German Royal Arsenal at Erfurt, Germany. These were made for the Imperial German Army and were used in the bitter fighting of trench warfare of the Great War. 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. His design would be especially successful throughout World War I & World War II. These pistols had and still have a reputation of being of utter quality and quite expensive to produce.
This specimen is dated “1914” on the top of the chamber. The toggle is marked with a “Crown/ERFURT”. German military proof and acceptance marks are located throughout. This one went through an East German armory refinish at some point with the black finish all over and the replacement of worn parts and force matched.
The overall condition is good. The action is excellent and the bore is in fine condition: shiny bright with sharp rifling. The grips are solid.
This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.
Barrel is 4 inches.
Caliber: 9x19mm Luger
