This pistol has matching serial numbers on the parts including the two magazines as noted. The Luger has the standard military style numbers with the full serial number on the major parts with the various small parts all have the last two digits of the serial number along with the "crown Erfurt" acceptance proof mark. The rear of the barrel also has a single "Crown/Script Letter" proof with an "Imperial Eagle" proof on the right side. The left side of the barrel extension is marked with the three "Crown/Script" Letter proofs next to an "Imperial Eagle" proof. The top of the chamber is marked "1916" for the year of manufacture and the front toggle is marked with the "Crown/ERFURT". The Erfurt Luger is a fairly scarce Luger to find as they had lower production numbers than the DWM models. This is an example of a standard WWI 1908 German Luger pistol as manufactured by the Erfurt factory in 1916.
