DWM 1920 Commercial Luger, #5754i, 9mm, 4'' barrel, blue finish, checkered walnut grips, with ''(crown)/N'' proofmark on barrel and left side of barrel extension; Germany import stamp on right barrel extension. No chamber markings. Firing pin is not numbered as is common in these post-WWI pistols assembled with both military and commercial parts. Three (3) magazines are included: One nickel bodied with wood base bearing the #5**4 and may be original to the pistol; one blue bodies with black plastic bullseye base; and one Mec-Gar reproduction mag. Condition is excellent, with all matching numbers including grips. Finish retains approx. 95% original blue with most of the loss to the muzzle and high points of the disassembly plate; straw parts retain approx. 85% original color. The numbered grips are excellent with a small amount of flattening to the checkers, and one small chip missing behind the safety. Action is tight, bore is excellent. One of the better 1920's we have seen recently. Est.: $1,500-$2,500. (C&R/PPT)
