look on top of pistol, just behind the ejection port, and you will see the date it was made
The Luger P08 was a standard sidearm of the German Military in both World Wars.
German Luger pistols before 1902 used a proprietary 7.65mm bottleneck cartridge, sometimes referred to as .30 Luger in US. After 1902 Lugers used the 9mm round, also commonly known as 9mm Para (Parabellum) and 9mm Luger.

value would depend on overall condition
The Luger was a standard issue sidearm in WW1. The P-38 pistol replaced it in WW2.
if you look at the top, over the chamber, there should be a date.............
It is impossible to value a Luger with just a serial number.
the frame
if you look down on the luger top you will see a date. that is when it was made.....
look on top of gun where barrel is attached to receiver. you will se four numbers. that is the date it was made................
the luger is a German design, not french. luger value depends on overall condition.......
No.
The Luger P08 was a standard sidearm of the German Military in both World Wars.
The Luger had a Year stamped on top of the receiver just behind the barrel.
on top of the luger, where the barrel goes into the receiver ther is (usuaally) a date. On the left side of the frame, just down from the date is the serial number. Usually not more then 4 numbers
luger were made to fire a 9mm cartridge or the 30 luger cartridge. a 9mm cartridge will not chamber in a 30 cal luger pistol............
I believe you will find that the German Luger P08 went into production in the early 1900's. P08 basically refers to Pistol of 1908.The luger was used extensively during WW1 and WW2 by German forces.
