My 1940 Mauser PO8

[VN Vet]

I was working on my closet today when I found my Lugers. Here is one of the finest German Lugers I've seen.















I'm still having problems uploading files. Sorry.

You nazi!

On another note good looking pistola. I made the mistake of passing one up with nazi markings all over it. Regret it now since it was in good shape.

Very nice condition. I like mine with a little battle wear.

Very, very nice! You are certainly correct, that is much nicer than almost all of them you see. There was another thread recently where somebody mentioned that the Glock was the 1st striker fired pistol. I didn't bother to respond because the thread had already moved way past that comment, but I immediately thought Hmmm, I know of a pretty famous one that predates it by about 3/4 of a century.

PLEASE tell me that you don't store it in that leather holster...

Pretty please tell me you don't do that...

I wish I found lugers in my closet haha

Very nice...I need to go look at mine now. Maybe even take it to the range next time I go...

Very nice, indeed! My mother's younger brother used to buy & sell those with great regularity. At one time I believe he had at east a dozen of them.

If that pistol was stored in that holster I doubt seriously that it would be in that good of shape.......unless it was checked weekly or more often of course.

That's my hope!

Either that or a very dry home (which is hard to do 7 months of the year here)
