SOLD - Rare American Eagle DWM Luger - A.F. Stoeger Marked

Description

8/18/22 - This is a rare A.F. Stoeger marked Luger in excellent, original condition. These Luger pistols were manufactured in Germany during the 1930s by Mauser, after recently taking over production of Luger pistols from DWM, for Stoeger Arms Corporation to be sold in the U.S. Several different barrel lengths were offered in either 9mm or 7.65mm, and the quantity acquired by Stoeger was rather low, making this Luger a scarce variation. This particular pistol is in .30 Luger with 4-inch barrel. This example is marked with the "American Eagle" stamp on the chamber and "DWM" on the toggle. It is all matching and has the proper "Crown N" proofs. The frame is GERMANY export marked. The right side of the slide is marked A.F. STOEGER INC/NEW YORK. It has retained about 94-95% of its original finish. There is spotty wear on the grip straps and areas of minor wear on the side plate and right side rail. Comes with excellent wood grips that appear to be numbered and mismatched. Also comes with a proper "Germany" marked magazine. The bore is excellent - shiny with strong rifling.
