![Luger DWM 1923 - Left](https://sixguns.com/uploads/default/original/2X/e/e98e6a739e8a36e2d6f1846fe6b790cae4f879bc.jpeg) SORT of “surplus”. Made in 1923, with matching serial numbers, in 7.62X21 or .30 Lugar. Back then Germany had a foreign currency problem, and one way to help solve it was to make guns to sell in America. ---

I got it quite by accident. The holster is original but was not cared for, so is flakey and falling apart. I have tried to give it life with neatsfoot oil but there was only so much to work with. Much just flaked into dust when i first got it. But it’s all original, matching numbers, just like you’d expect from the Krauts. ---

I would say **especially** if it’s built from a parts kit. The receiver may be new (or maybe not), but that parts kit is from an actual surplus rifle. ---
