Description
This lot features a Stoeger Arms Corporation American Luger semi-automatic pistol chambered in .22 Long Rifle.

The frame is fitted with checkered wood grip panels secured by a single screw on each side. The pistol is equipped with a fixed front blade sight and a rear notch sight integral to the toggle. The left side of the frame is stamped with the serial number 1481 and transcribed as Made in U.S.A. by / STOEGER ARMS CORPORATION / PATENTS PENDING. The right side of the frame displays an ornate Luger logo inside scrollwork with the text REG. U.S. PAT. OFF. while the right side of the chamber is marked CAL. .22 L.R. The toggle bears a circular eagle logo. The safety lever on the left rear of the frame is marked with F and S with directional arrows. This lot includes one single-stack magazine with a blued body, a black finger-rest base, and a yellow follower. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The pistol is in good used condition, showing significant holster wear and thinning of the blued finish, particularly on the high points, barrel, and grip straps. There are scattered handling marks, scuffs, and light surface oxidation present on the metal surfaces. The checkered wood grips show some smoothing of the texture and scattered dings but remain intact. The magazine shows finish wear and some minor surface oxidation. The bore is bright with well-defined rifling. The toggle action and trigger appear to function correctly when manually cycled, though the firearm has not been live-fire tested.
