Here is a restoration of one of the most interesting firearms in history. The action is one of a kind and of course was the sidearm for the imperial german army in world war 1. The Luger P-08 is one of the most famous handguns from the two major wars. I was very lucky to get one into my possession to restore. Sent to me by a viewer of the channel that had a flooded basement. As always links are below and we hope you consider subscribing. Thanks for watching!

I have never seen a Luger fully stripped down like this. It makes me appreciate the amount design and machining involved in the engineering of this pistol, obviously a lot more complex than the 1911A Colt but also a lot more aesthetically appealing. Thank you for sharing this video. Great restoration. 👍
1911A1 is also a later design than the one in this video. The 1911 is older, but the A1 was designed in 1926
Absolutely, they are a work of art! Thanks for the comment and for watching

Thank you .👍
@@hooks_and_horns first Lugers which chambered 7.65 Luger (not 9 mm) was design in late 1890th. Mauser C96, Browning 1900 and Luger was first normal working reliable semi auto pistols.
Looks like another fake resto with fresh rust
Очень удивлён количеством деталей в этой модели! Конструктора тех лет были очень талантливыми, и времени не жалели. Модель красивая, современные модели как буд-то из прямоугольников сделаны, все на один манер. А в этой модели есть рука мастера, дизайн, что ли. Реставратор тоже душу приложил, ясно, как он "нежно" относится к каждому винтику, уважает старых мастеров. Хотя ведь модель серийно на заводе делали. Спасибо за реставрацию!
Ya they don't make them like they use to! Thanks for the kind words we appreciate it and thanks for watching!
Пистолет был очень сложный в изготовлении и стоил бешеные деньги по тем временам
@@motorola5848 Да и сейчас стоит немало.
@@SerhiiKovtunRivne если перевести на те деньги, то сейчас он должен стоить миллион рублей)))) хорошо, что сняли с производства
В свое время эта модель и была снята с производства из за сложности производства и высокой стоимости. Одним словом, это пистолет армии мирного времени в небедной стране. Но ни как не модель военного времени
How many parts does a gun need?
German gunsmiths: "JA!"
Ya they like to over engineer sometimes. Thanks for watching
Haha, Exactly! "JA" Over-engineered for sure!
Да,столько деталек.По сравнению с Люгером ПМ вообще сама простота.))
A country at war prioritized resources for this kind of over engineering. I cannot understand Germany
This made me laugh 😂
I remember one time I was talking to a friend. He said that his parents were telling him about a gun that his great great grandfather had brought back from the First World War. He said they told him when he was born, they sold it at a gun buyback because they were scared he’d get hurt. He asked them what it looked like and they said a long barrel, funny looking body, and a big red “9” on the grip. He showed them a pic of a Red 9 Artillery Luger and they said that was it. I shed a tear that day
OUCH! The last one like that I've seen went for $5000! Most people hear "Red 9" and think C96 Mauser not knowing any better.
Ah, that is unfortunate! They are worth good money in decent shape! Thanks for watching
I was gonna cry, but I'll use sarcasm instead :" At least the gun buyback stopped a lot of crime from happening" Years ago my neighbor had a friend that worked for the city at a dangerous waste dropoff location. These widows would bring in their husband's "dangerous stuff" . Things like ammo, expensive gun grips, reloading supplies . Just massive amounts. I bet they brought in guns too . Neighbor had some tube stereo from the 1960s that was worth some money. His wife hated it and told him if he died first it was going on the curb as trash. Stay single guys. Women are nuts.
This falls under flawed logic. Had they a) kept the gun out of the child's reach, b) not kept ammunition in the house, c) taught the child to be responsible around firearms, and d) provided proper firearm use instruction, then he would have inherited a proper piece of history from his g g grandfather. As it is, he is out of a valuable piece of history, family lore and the connection to a passed relative.
Correct me if am wrong, but a red 9 is a c96 Mauser, never heard of a red 9 po8 luger as most luger are 9mm anyway.
Определённо, Luger P-08 - это произведение инженерного искусства, а мастерство реставратора достойно подражанию. Респект и уважение!
Absolutely, thank you very much we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Корректное обозначение - P.08
I fell deeply in love with the Luger at about age 13, (That's nearly 66 years ago!)when my much older sister went out with the curator of the museum. To keep me out of the way, he took a Luger from the filing cabinet, removed the magazine, made sure there wasn't a round chambered, and let me play with it. Over the next few decades, I got to fire a few, including an artillery model. they point so naturally, and don't twist in recoil like other semiautomatic pistols I have fired.
That's awesome, ya they are beautiful iconic guns! Thanks for watching
One thing that Is glaringly clear,The machining of components is top notch that will Not be seen nowadays 😔
Great restoration 'The Kinzler Bros'👌
Absolutely, thanks we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
I love that little sizzle sound when putting pieces in water after the hot-bluing.
Ya it is satisfying, thanks for watching!
Every time I see one of these taken apart I think, what a nightmare. Just an awesome job done, and thanks for saving another piece of history.
Ya there is a lot there, thanks we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Love the old service weapons!
Ya me too, thanks for watching!
Beautiful Work. I saw a Luger in 1970. It was pointed at me in " jest" by a friend of a friend. It was a terrifying moment. Beautiful work in restoration. Enjoyed watching. Thank you!
Thanks, I'm glad you are ok! Thanks for watching!
Благодарю, мне бы лет 30 назад найти подобное творение! Хоть душу порадовал.
Your welcome, glad you enjoyed it!
Уважение реставратору за бережное отношение к своим "пациентам") Прекрасная работа!
Thanks for the kind words and for watching, we appreciate it!
Посмотрите на исходного "пациента" внимательно! Достаньте любую железку, пролежавшую в земле с десяток лет и почувствуйте разницу! Этот "пациент" специально обработан перед снятием видео какой-то химией типа хлорного железа. Вы попробуйте сдвинуть детали в любом металлическом предмете, который ржавел на воздухе или в земле много лет! Не получится! Это все сделано специально для вас, чтобы смотрели и восторгались, что типа так можно! Фейк на фейке и им же погоняет!
It's just as enjoyable watching the careful dissection of the weapon as much as the restoration. Enjoyed it greatly, thanks much!
We are happy you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
Thank you for taking the time to restore history for future generations! Well done!
Your welcome, thank you for watching. We appreciate it!
WOW!! THAT WAS IMPRESSIVE!!! Wanna sell it? Seriously, very nice work.

Spectacular Restoration. Two thumbs way up 👍👍
Thank you very much Jerry!
Good job on this one! Saved for the future. So many parts! But still working more than 100 years later. Has never seen a P08 broken down to every single part, very interesting.
Thanks, absolutely! Ya there is a lot there. Thanks for watching!
A real extraordinary resurrection of this Luger. All your resurrections are fabulous, but this example had missing pieces. But this reminds me of Easter! Not that your others are not Impressive and astonishing to see at the end. You’re the best Brandon. See you on the next! 🙂👍🇺🇸
Thanks Martin your the best! Thanks for watching!
What a great looking pistol, nice to see a video where they were actually fired at the end.
Yes it is, absolutely we always shoot them! Thanks for watching
A design so over engineered, but so beautiful. Generations of expert clock and pocket-watch makers.
Ya it is a beautiful gun, thanks for watching!
Fascinating, thanks!
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
Another great restoration of an iconic weapon!! Man, that's one sweet-shooting Luger! Warm greetings from South Africa 👍😉
Thanks, ya it is a beautiful gun! Thanks for watching always

That's a pretty luger. wish mine was looking like that...
Thank you, I'm sure yours is nice too! Thanks for watching!
Ahora me doy cuenta el porqué son muy buscadas y valoradas estas pistolas.SON UN VERDADERO TESORO DE LA ARMERIA. y esta hecha y ajustada de forma UNICA. por eso son Caras Y CON RAZON. ❤❤❤
Ya everyone wants one for there collection. Thanks for watching!
Гут арбайт! Нарезка ствола отличная, похоже он почти не стрелял на службе, ещё поживёт теперь.
Absolutely, it will be good for another hundred plus years. Thanks for watching
As i was accidentally shot by one of these I did find it very interesting! I was 2 at the time (1951) and my father was showing off the Luger (which he "acquired" during the war. It went off--I remember the noise. I also remember the burning feeling across my throat. Only a skin graze, but the small scar was there for years. Never saw the gun again!! Probably makes me the last English person to be shot by a German Army Luger!
Looks well designed and made--much better than some others I have seen. Just a bit loud when you are in the same room.
Thanks
That's terrible, thankfully it wasn't worse and you survived! Thanks for watching!
Luger, another man ahead of his time.
Absolutely. Thanks for watching!
Lovely complicated piece, great job
Yes it is, thanks we appreciate it!
Parabéns pelo trabalho! Uma perfeição!!!!
Thank you very much, thanks for watching!
i think the pitting gives the Luger character, nice work.
Absolutely, thanks for watching!
Those Lugers are a work of art. Never got to fire one though. Hopefully someday I will.
Ya they are interesting, you will! Thanks for watching
As a machine for 8 years I can appreciate all the time & effort that went in to these pistols. Great Craftsmanship!
Ya they are beautiful works of engineering. Thanks for watching!
Watching this video, I can see my Grandmother‘s Cousin August Weiss , who dedicated all his work life to this great pistol. I still have documents from him. Thank you so much. Very interesting.
That is amazing, thanks for the comment and for watching!
Outstanding piece of work
Yes it is, thanks for watching!
Close friend of mine inherited a 1914 DWM Luger from his grandfather, who brought it back from WW2, complete with original holster. Has all bring back paperwork and everything. unrestored, all matching numbers. its a thing of beauty. love this restoration.
That's awesome, thanks we appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Профессионально ! Спасибо !
Thanks, thank you for watching!
Que SEÑORA MANUFACTURA QUE TIENEN.y muy dificil de fabricar.BELLA.❤
Thank you very much for the kind words, thanks for watching!
Amazing, fantastic. I would have never got that pistol back together, thanks, really enjoyed 😊
Thanks, ya it takes a little time. Thanks for watching!
amzing gun, i love it, so advanced concepts
Yes it is, me too! Thanks for watching
I like how you pickled that Luger so you could bring it back from the dead while looking like master craftsmen, saving the day.
I don't think so, not on this channel! Thanks for watching
The next chance you get to restore a Luger, I'd recommend trying to maintain the silver/strawed color of certain pieces like the trigger, takedown lever, safety lever, and firing pin, (among others). Those parts weren't originally blued and keeping them closer to their original color would keep the gun looking closer to how it did back in the day. All in all a really good restoration though.
I know and I hear you! Thanks we appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Вы Мастер с большой буквы. Так завораживает смотреть на вашу рестоврацию, данная модель прекрасна, вы дали ей вторую жизнь!
Thank you for the kind words, thanks for watching we appreciate it!

Ya it is very impressive, thanks for watching!
What amazing restoration,and what amazing gun...love P08❤
Thank you and thanks for watching!
I remember that jamming. It happened all the time.

Very nicely done!
Thank you very much!
Hi again Brandon , Wow , beautiful restoration once again , I don't think I have ever seen so many components being disassembled and assembled , surely a record ? You certainly took marksmanship to a new high level , great hand , eye coordination my friend , well done , looking forward to your next challenge .
Thanks Pete we appreciate you. Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
Я так думаю столько лет назад технологии были впечатляющие, люди умели делать без компьютеров и на века . Любую старую вещь возьми, сука это произведение искусства, сколько наблюдаю, нет слов.
Ya they are beautiful pieces of engineering, thanks for watching!
Awesome video!!!

Une des meilleures restauration que j'ai pu voir vraiment bravo et merci de respecter autant ses œuvres d'art.
Thank you David we appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Just read the notes a bit more carefully, and the gun that shot me could have been a later model (WWW2) but it was a Luger. Thanks again for showing.
Ya it probably was, thanks for watching!
For his age the gun look pretty in good shape !
Ya for sure, it's a beautiful gun! Thanks for watching
Your videos are simply amazing and awesome! Thank you for the content.
Thank you very much, thanks for watching!
beautiful work
Thank you!
This is called Luger but Georg Luger was the Austrian weapons technician who co-designed the weapon. Its name is P 08 for Parabellumpistole (or just Pistole) 1908, Parabellum is from the Latin phrase - "Si vis pacem, para bellum" meaning "If you want peace, prepare for war" @4:35 the part with the stamp "GELADEN" is German for "loaded". @7:32 the part stamped with "GESICHERT" means "safety on or engaged". @7:50 is the logo of the "Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken".
Thanks for the info and for watching!
Hugo Borchardt conceived the original design, after having worked at the Winchester plant, and was intrigued by the Win. 73s toggle system.
Beautifully done as always! I have a 1911 DWM that actually came home with my grandfather from Germany in ‘46. Unfortunately it’s a total mismatch but still a great gun to shoot and a real head turner at the range! Also, one thing you guys should do if you haven’t already is check the bottom of the barrel just in front of the frame for a waffenamt. Mine has an S/42 marking there which means it went through a rebuild at Mauser during the third reich era if I am not mistaken. It’s been a while since I looked it up.
Thanks we appreciate it, that's a beautiful gun! It has a 8.82 mm marking. It hasn't been re arsenaled. Thanks for watching
Pretty good shootin’ partner! That Luger looks nice. Great addition to collection!😊
Thanks Bryant! Absolutely it is a beautiful gun. Thanks for watching
!
Christ those are a lot of moving parts. Gotta love that German engineering though. Quality machining
Ya it is impressive, thanks for watching!
this is exactly when before is better than after
Alright, I disagree but, thanks for watching!
Place the parts in boiling water to remove all the salts. Cold water doesn't melt the salts off.. nice work

Ya it is different, thanks for watching!
Awesome restoration! 😎👍
Thanks!
Another fine job. Anytime I go to the gun shows I always have my eye out for a Luger.
Where is a little tip for everyone. Whenever you work on your handgun if it's just the cleaning or to just do maintenance there is a way without ammunition to check and see if its operating correctly.
You can do this with a pencil and sliding down the barrel. Then pull the trigger and when the pencil comes flying out of the end end of the barrel then you know if you put bullets back in your gun it will fire correctly.
As always look forward to your next video.
Thanks we appreciate it, ya for sure! Thanks for the tip and for watching
Легендарный пистолет. Респект автору за восстановление.

It’s Sunday sitting back chilling with my favourite guys the Kinzler bros life is sweet great video as always love from London England Marcus.
Thanks Marcus we appreciate you buddy! Thanks for watching
Beautiful restoration of a piece of history as always. I own an HK VP9 myself and it's probably my favorite of all the other 9mm's I've tried.
Thank you we appreciate it! Ya I like it a lot and the mag release is different than most guns. Thanks for watching
Hey man, no hate, just a question. The lack of pitting, and the look the rust reminds me a lot of a rust blueing prep. Did you fake that by rust blueing and letting it sit for longer ?
No I did not, it has minor pitting, its worse on the one side. Thanks for watching!
Самий надійний і красивий пістолет в усі часи,моє нездійсненна мрія!
The 1911 is pretty good too, nothing is impossible. Thanks for watching!
