SOLD - Stunning, Ultra Rare, Cased 1902 DWM American Eagle Fat Barrel Luger

Description

4/24/26 - This is a stunning example of a very desirable early Model 1902 "American Eagle" Luger pistol. These are rare with the "fat" barrel, as only 600-700 were ever produced in total, all for commercial sales in the United States. This model was a continuation of the earlier 1902 commercial Luger however these were specifically intended for the U.S. market, and these were the first 9mm chambered Lugers. This pistol has the short old style frame with leaf springs and no stock lug, recessed breech block, dished toggles with toggle lock and grip safety. The barrel extension is also the short old model with the top of the chamber area roll marked with the prominent "American Eagle" crest, with the front toggle correctly marked with the "DWM" logo. This particular gun comes with a really nice leather presentation case (high quality of craftsmanship), an original owners manual, cleaning rod, one full box of vintage ammunition, and three correct "Cal 9m/m" marked magazines. The gun itself is gorgeous, retaining about 98% of its original bluing - just hints of high edge wear. Bright straw-coloring and fire-bluing on the small parts. The bore is mint. The grips are in like-new condition - both are marked internally with an asterisk, which we have seen specifically on other Fat Barrel examples but unsure the exact significance.
