The forend is also correctly numbered
(598) inside the cutout for the frame
extension and also matches the pistol. The grips are numbered (47) on the back side
of each panel. The stock is completely original and unaltered and has the hard-plastic/
horn type buttplate and an original lower sling swivel. The original attaching iron on the stock is
numbered (598) on top. The magazine has a nickel plated body with the correct wood base. Comes in a highly
desirable bound takedown case containing a pin punch, dismantling tool, two extra nickel plated magazines with the correct wood base, cleaning rod with oil container, and period box of 7.65mm cartridges.
CONDITION: Very fine with 85% plus of the original blued finish remaining with minor edge and high spot wear overall, some minor spotting/speckling on top of the barrel, the side plate, and left side of the frame area, and minor thinning/scratches
on the front grip strap. The various small parts retain 90% of the refurbished straw colors with slightly more wear on the face of the trigger. The replaced grips are fine as well as the other wood with some very minor nicks and dings on the forend and buttstock. The presentation case is also very fine showing some discoloration and minor wear to the exterior and limited high spot wear on the otherwise very fine original lining. A very fine example of a scarce presentation cased 1902 DWM Luger carbine with stock.
Estimate: 18,000 - 27,500
