Spaff Posted February 24, 2021 #1 Posted February 24, 2021 Just got this pistol and can't wait to shoot it. It's a 2nd variation and has "R.M.G.83.226" unit markings. Reserve machinegun?
SARGE Posted February 24, 2021 #2 Posted February 24, 2021 A neat Langenhan pistol with a unit marking. Most Reserve units have a script "R" but some seemed to have a Latin "R" like yours. So, a Reserve Machine Gun Unit #83 (with the 226 being the weapon number) is as good a guess as any I suspect.
Tony v Posted February 24, 2021 #3 Posted February 24, 2021 Very interesting weapon, thank you for sharing. Tony
dpast32 Posted February 25, 2021 #4 Posted February 25, 2021 Absolutely beautiful Imperial German WW1 Issue weapon ! A little on the worn side, but not commonly found, at least these days anyway. Do you have Jan Stills Series of Axis Handguns, much information is to be found there, especially in Volume # 1, the early edition. Best, dpast32
Spaff Posted February 27, 2021 Author #5 Posted February 27, 2021 Thanks for the comments. It's in better shape internally, and the serial numbers all match.
