1918 DWM LP.08 Artillery Luger – British-Proofed Veteran "Kaiser's Long Arm"

Exceptional 1918 DWM LP.08 Artillery Luger manufactured during the final year of Imperial German production and bearing British commercial proof marks acquired during its postwar civilian history. Featuring the distinctive 8-inch barrel, adjustable tangent rear sight graduated to 800 meters, and stock lug, the LP.08 represents one of the most iconic and sought-after variants of the legendary Luger pistol. Originally issued to artillery crews, aviation personnel, and elite stormtrooper units during the First World War, the Artillery Luger occupies a special place among advanced military handgun collectors.
Retaining approximately 95% original finish, this outstanding example displays the superior craftsmanship associated with late-war DWM production. High-condition Artillery Lugers are increasingly difficult to locate, particularly those retaining matching numbers, original grips, and strong Imperial acceptance markings. The LP.08 remains one of the most recognizable and desirable military pistols of the Great War.
