Spring Cleaning P08
« on: April 02, 2023, 12:56:49 PM »

Got the Luger out to clean and decided to post a couple pics

After thinning out the herd I’m down to just this one BYF 42

Some collectors refer to this as the Black Widow

Although the #’s match including the firing pin .. unfortunately the holster dates to 1940  :(

I would rank the finish at least 85% not bad for a old pistol  thumb1
