His design would be especially successful throughout World War I & World War II. Georg Luger was the inventor and the namesake of this very successful invention. These were made for the Imperial German Army and were used in the bitter fighting of trench warfare of the Great War.

On the right side of the buttstock there is a '1920' stamp, but the matching serial number appears behind the pistol Erfurt 1918 Kar 98 unit markings (?) Archive - Gunboard's Forums Gunboard's Forums Discussion Boards The Military Mauser Forum Erfurt 1918 Kar 98 unit markings (?).
I do plan to sell the Luger, as well as, a CYQ Spreewerke P-38. Any ideas as to value would be appreciated. Even though the Erfurt's were 'rough', this one is very original and has been very well taken care of. The gun is very low numbered as the earliest known serial number for the 1918 Erfurt is 304 and this is serial # 450. I will try and keep a record on the front page of maker, year and serial number for reference 1. Within the Handguns forums, part of the Gun Forum category Just wanted to show off my 1918 Eufurt P08 Luger Only thing that is missing is the loading/take down tool.
