LUGER, 1906 SWISS MILITARY. DWM 1906 SWISS LUGER 7979 30 LUGER MODERN; C&R Cal. .30 Luger. Standard 1906 Swiss military Luger made by DWM with 4-3/4" bbl having a drift adjustable front sight and a fixed rear sight mounted on the rear toggle link. Swiss cross within starburst on chamber and intertwined DWM on middle toggle link. Full SN on front of frame with Swiss inspector markings on left side of receiver. Bbl is a proofed but unmarked replacement, likely from a 1929 Bern. Disassembly shows all matching small parts including each of the grip panels. Magazine with tinned body. Base numbered "9917f" along with the "+" denoting its status as a spare magazine. CONDITION: Approx 98% orig blue, though salt blue of bbl is different from rust blue of remaining pistol. Minor discoloration/purple toning over the chamber likely incurred during the rebarreling. Front and backstrap that are minutely freckled. Excellent orig grips with very sharp checkering. No suggestion of touchup to the strawed small parts that are in the same overall excellent condition. VG magazine with slightly discolored body and small chips missing from left side of base. Mirror bore. Perfect manual mechanics. Overall, a very nice 1906 with a later bbl that underscores the Swiss practice of regularly refurbishing their Lugers. 49432-73 LMA (1,750-2,750)
