Also acquired in the purchase was the talents of Georg Luger who as a young engineer was converting the Borchart into what we know today.

Here’s a chance to buy an authentic WWI-issued pistol that then saw police service during the Weimar era. Who knows what happened after that – did it continue in police service or serve as part of the German Nazi Army during WW2? What makes this nice is it won’t cost as much as that Mauser that did end up in WW II. Remember – no import marking.
