SOLD - Very Rare DWM/Mauser Oberndorf Commercial Luger - Police Rework

Description

8/22/25 - This is a very rare WM/Mauser Oberndorf Commercial Luger. The DWM/Mauser Oberndorf model was generally made for commercial sales both within Germany. Even though the toggle mark makes these look like a typical post WW I commercial Luger, the Mauser Oberndorf proofs are what show these to me Mauser made/assembled from parts they got in their absorbing of DWM. One of only about 300 made. Some of the characteristics of this variation include late, flat, checkered style toggle knobs, the toggle is marked with the scroll DWM logo, the chamber is blank, and it has Mauser commercial Crown/U proofs. These are reported in the 600 v to 1240 v range. Ours is all matching and in the correct serial range. It was later reworked for issue to the Weimar-era German police, as evidenced by the added police sear safety and matching police arsenal-numbered magazine. It has retained about 90-92% of its finish comes in the form of spotty discoloration on the right side of the gun. The sideplate may have been refinished but we aren't certain as to when.  There is also some pitting at the back left of the frame and minor spotty wear on the grip straps. The left grip panel has a WW2-era "Eagle 655" proof, and the right panel is numbered and mismatched. There is a repaired crack on the right side. Excellent bore.
