I've got a 1916 WWI German Imperial Luger. Interesting thing about it was it was rearsenaled into the Finnish army in the 30s then sent back to the German army in the later part of the war. So it has the finnish "SA" stamp and the WaffenAmpt on it.. Interesting to see both marks on a gun like that. Too bad it has import marks on it or it would be worth even more. Check for some kind of other marks on them, pretty sure I can identify the symbols on it and tell you which factory it came from. Also, since the WaffenAmpt is still intact it most likely was a russian capture pistol, the Americans tended to ping out the WaffenAmpt when they captured german guns.
