1900 Swiss Luger

Panda & Pete:

Thanks for your comments and observations. The issue of the "flaming bomb" is another matter. The mark is not the same mark as the flaming bomb found on some AE Lugers, but rather a similar mark with concentric intertwined circles found on some DWM Lugers and often mistaken for the flaming bomb.

In the technical section, Viggo posted a picture of this mark, which unless viewed closely could very easily be mistaken for the flaming bomb. If either of you know where I might be able to pick up a proper "disc" magazine I would appreciate it. Pete, I know you mentioned you have found them on ebay, but with so many fakes out there and my limited knowledge I wouldn't know if I was purchasing the "real McCoy".

I would much rather purchase one from a reputable dealer, or other Forum member if possible. Thanks for your comments, they are greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Bob
