H032494 P08 LUGER PISTOL 9MM AMMUNITION BOX. (Patronenkasten)
BACKGROUND: Developed in 1908 the P08 Luger pistol saw service through out WWI during the Reichswehr era and was adopted as the official pistol of the Wehrmacht. Although popular, the design of the P08 toggle breech made it prone to dirt entry after firing which affected its performance. Of Note: In 1938 the weapons firm of Carl Walther developed the P38 pistol as a replacement for the P08. Although the P38 never fully replaced the P08, manufacturing of the P08 was discontinued in 1943.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Nice complete original box for 16 rounds. Good label.
