Summary[edit]

Description
English: Replica of Nazi leader Hermann Göring's special presentation Luger pistol P08 (Parabellum-Pistole) serial No. 16999.

The original pistol was lavishly engraved, had carved ivory presentation grips and was fitted into a special walnut display case. Two Lugers were found at the Krieghoff firearm factory in Suhl, Thuringia, Germany after World War II, while a third example went missing for years. It is assumed that all three were intended as special Presentation pistols for high ranking German/Nazi officials or specifically for Herman Goering personally, as Goering had close ties to the Krieghoff factory.

Photo taken on May 8, 2019 at the Lofoten War Memorial Museum (Lofoten Krigsminnemuseum) in Svolvær, Norway. The museum exhibits uniforms, militaria, smaller items, memorabilia, etc. related to World War II and the German occupation of Norway 1940 – 1945.
  • Replica of Göring's Luger pistol, cigar box and Christmas baulbe with portrait of Göring, ett.
