I have a 1941 BYF.It came with 2 magazines,one with an aluminium bottom and a black plastic one.The aluminium one has a matching number with my pistol,the plastic one has none.I have read that this was common.The plastic bottoms were made by Haenel to produce more mags for the German Army.Mines was a bring back from WWII from my dad's freind who was in Italy from the famed 100th/442nd INF.I never will forget this man,wounded 3 times and survived the war.Sold it to my dad and now I own it.
You don't see many Luger videos on youtube, thanks for making one! Definitely one of the best pistols I own.
I like your historical talk of guns. Thanks dude!
Great video. Very informative. Thanks for taking the time to do this
You are most definitely correct. I made the mistake of thinking that just because they used it, they adopted it. Thank you for helping me out!
The Roth-Steyr M1907 was formally adopted by the Austro-Hungarian Army in 1907 (hence the name). The Luger was officially adopted by the Swiss Army in 1900. The M1907 was just being designed when the Luger was adopted.
Thank you. I always wanted to know more about this pistol, since I have seen it in all ww2 movies, on german side.
Watching from the UK. Excellent video man, subscribed.
You are correct! Another user pointed this out and I added an annotation, but thank you for informing me.
Did a little research and you are correct. I will add an annotation to fix this. Thanks for the help!
You are most definitely correct. Thank you for pointing that out! I'll add an annotation correcting it.
Thanks! I'll have to look into that book. I understand some German and have a few friends who are native speakers so it wouldn't be too difficult to read.
Nice post , my friend . I own a Mitchell Arms American Eagle stainless Luger made in 1991 . Aimco made 'em , Stoeger & Mitchell were the distributors .A very nice " Luger " if all you want is a shooter w/ no historical significance . I've wanted one since I saw my grandfather's 1936DWM & now I own one that I'll let anybody shoot . Recoil is very different than a Browning design , it just kinda " hops " in your hand ...EVERYBODY wants to shoot a Luger & snap cellphone pics .Semper Fi ,God Bless
The first automatic pistol that was adopted by a military is Mauser c96, not P08. C96 became the sidearm for the Ottoman Army officers in 1897.
My first day on a range this afternoon and I shot this gun, really nice shooting I preferred this to the glock 17 I also shot.
I cannot confirm that in 1942 the magazines did not have serial numbers, but it would make sense since they was pumping out as many arms as they could and magazines were lost all the time. Not serializing something allowed them to produce them faster.
Luger: the most beautiful pistol ever!!!
Luger P08-best video!
I really couldn't say without looking at it. If all the parts are matching, the bore is good, it has a majority of its blueing and it functions well, it could go for $1000+. But if one thing is off it could drop it to $600-$700. If you want a real price, go to an appraiser. Some gun shops will do that for you.
Note that Lothar Walther makes new barrels in all common sizes (short, normal, marine, artillery).
GREAT VIDEO my friend ! thanks you !
Excellent video on your Luger!
I use to own the .22 luger made by stoeger (I hope I spelled it right). I trade a salvage mark 2 rifle to get it. It was a great looking pistol, although I always jammed unless you fired hot loaded .22 rounds. Ended up trading it off.
That pistol uses the 7.65 x 20mm Longue which is a straight wall cartridge unlike the 7.65 Luger, which is necked down. I did a little searching and couldn't find any place to get the ammunition. Unfortunately, unless you find some old French ammo, you're out of luck since no other cartridge is like that one.
i like your vids becouse u likee guns for the history not just for looks.
I own a Mitchell Arms " American Eagle " made by Aimco in stainless . What a shooter & a beautiful piece of history . It is " das bomb " ....
Thanks for a very interesting video! Complicated guns those Lugers. :D
BYF 42 Black Widow Luger is a nother model that you did not state it is the only one that had black plastic grips rare and i'm glad to own one.
The reproductions I've heard of that are true to the old design and actually function properly are usually very expensive. Like in the thousands of dollars range. Other than local gun shops the best place I know of to buy firearms is GunBroker. It's a website like eBay, but for guns.
Great video, I picked up a 1916 DWM Luger in 9mm and I'm very anxious to shoot it. The overall condition is very good with some slight wear on the grips but thats OK wih me, they give the gun character. When I bought it it didn't have a mag with it but I'm looking and and hope to throw some lead downrange with it soon!
I would absolutely love to, but, unfortunately, I don't have a P38 or know someone who does. When I can get my hands on one, I will definitely do a review.
This is fantastic gun!
my grandfather ones one it is a 45.cal remake by an austrian small arms remake company.
I think Bill Ruger got the Idea for his mark 1 handgun from the Japanese Nambu pistol not the luger. But very good and informative video.
The 9mm is more practical for self defense though, also the 9x19mm parabellum round was made famous with this weapon.
You should just try to find a new barrel to fire the 9mm round since the .30 Luger is hard to find. Like you said, all you needed to do is change the barrel to convert the pistol; plus, if you could find a reproduction barrel, it would not harm the original .30 Luger barrel :)
The reason I do a safety check is mainly so I don't get a bunch of comments saying I should do it. It also reminds people to always be safe and check, which isn't a bad thing.
love the stock lugers. still. the stock is even rarer then the luger. and more expensive than the luger. a mint one did sell for 17000 dollars. for a unik luger the 1919 delux model.
Gun Broker is probably your best bet. For a decent Luger you're probably going to spend $900 at least. I recommend getting a 9mm one because the ammo is much, much cheaper.
I was watching a Vid' on the history of the 1911, the Vid' was created by the NRA NAtional fire arms museum (\ think that what it was called) anyway. They said that the US military requested 200 pistols for testing Savage and Colt where the only 2 that made the 200, Luger made 2 and they said something about those 2 lugers are the most valuable Lugers today. They sold for 1,000,000 each .Now I didn't know I was going to be repeating some of this information so the details might be slightly off.
Ivan T yeah they are the only 2 Lugers in 45 acp as well.
I have a 9x19mm Luger and its all original execpt it has been reblued. It has such a soft recoil impluse that some people dont know what to think when i let them shoot it.
Which went on to become the signature pistol for a certain MI6 agent. Whether you consider that ironic or not :P
Gread video Thank you!!!!
I've thought of doing that, but it's quite difficult to find a barrel and they are normally expensive.
my favorite pistol :)
Thanks! Honestly, I don't like the caliber much. It's just not common enough so it's expensive and if you want to reload it, it is more difficult because it is a necked down cartridge. Other than that, it shoots fine and has very manageable recoil.

What a beauty
I believe the frame of your Luger to be older than 1920...specifically pre 1914 because yours is lacking the stock lug at the back of the grips that were present on all Lugers made 1914 and after.
Oh well, but I'm sure you can find a custom one somewhere, maybe even a gunsmith can fashion you one. I'm sure that no matter how expensive it is at first, you would save money in the long run by not needing to purchase the .30 Luger cartridge. I am probably wrong though, I don't know of anyone who has a custom Luger barrel. Well, good luck to you with your shooting anyways :)
This is the gun that almost took over the world... Twice.
Hello, Nice video. I am living in Bolivia and i found a luger 7.65 parabellum, i want to buy it but a want to be sure that it is original. can you give any advice. Were can i send you pictures of the gum? Thank you very much.
Yeah, it was ground down at some point in it's past. I'll probably never know why.
Nevermind, I see your stock lug now... It looked like it was missing in the earlier half of your video....
My luger magazine won't go inside the pistol. The safe clip is also jammed. No one has ever taken care of it, sitting for like more than 30 years with no maintenance. Any ideas?
Why not disassembly further than field strip to detailed strip?
My Luger that my grandad got off a victim has "1940" on it's top just aft of the barrell.
Can anyone confirm that as a manufacture date?
Love the gun, the way it sits in my hand & such fun to fire.
The Mauser C96 was NEVER adopted by the German Army, navy, nothing. The Luger was. He does not need to correct it, you are wrong. The C96 was used by the German military, but they never officially adopted it.
how do you decock a Luger? Could you make a short video on decocking? I went to the local gun store but they didn't know what I was talking about. Also, I didn't want to break the pin. Thanks
I have a question are the clips for a 9mm same as the 30cal?? and do you know if you can change out the barriles from a 30cal to a 9mm thanks great vid
If this video was just one minute longer, it would be 19:11. I'd get a kick out of that!
Hey I recently purchased I think the same gun it has all the same marks as you are showing in the video and I was jw how much these usually go for is there anyway you can tell me
great video! I'm about to buy a 7.65. what do you think about this caliber?
it is called Dirstiabun
Can u put link of site where u bought it? and how did you make that handle grips cuz i want to make one for my -crvena zastava- pistol
In the vid you said that ruger copied the luger well he didnt he copied the baby nambu pistol and just change it a little and made it longer and what not..
Can you do a video for the Walther P38?
It'd most likely be cheaper to get an original production Luger.
When I made the video I knew it was going to be long and I thought it would take too much time.
I have a new erma werks .32acp Luger copy for 200$, but I´m not allowed to buy a handgun without permission in my country...
what do you mean and also where can i find one?
so is a replica worth buying?
Why? when the .30 with it's bottleneck feeds so much better in this design, and the .30 is just a great round, try finding ANY ammo now anywhere even 9mm, my point, once internet sales are back to where they should be, you can get .30 a lot easier. 9mm is to finicky in these guns, and only certain brands work in certain Lugers.
He is not correct, the C96 was never adopted by the German military. Check the facts again. Or look at the Mauser video from the history channel, Tales of the Gun. They say it right on there.
it doesn't matter anymore i mean I'm cool with that
not ppk it was the walther pp
they call the drums. snail mags
im getting one passed down to me:)
They're rarer.
So it would be legal to reproduce these?
simhopp I think somone has the copyright
FlipTheAngryAsian I think Stoeger still has rights to the Luger name in the U.S.
.30 bottleneck works so much better in these than 9mm. Fact.I would not do it.I own nothing but .30 Lugers.
James Bonds' gun lol
