Description:
9mm Luger; 80% blue, 30% straw, good bore, good grips, 4'' barrel, Ultra rare and important U.S. Test 1905 GL marked new model prototype Luger pistol, serial number 10070B. DWM scroll on center toggle link. Script "GL" on back of rear toggle link. Flat checkered New Model toggles without toggle lock. Modified frame without toggle latch. Unique extractor which is the same ear width as production New Model component, but has ears which are 0.5 mm thicker, preventing interchangeability with production guns.

Full serial number on front of frame. Matching numbered checkered walnut grips. Proper plain wood bottom mag.
