Some of you may have already known about this site on Portuguese Lugers, but I just found it, yes itâ??s in Portuguese but if you plug the link into â??Goggleâ?� you can translate it reasonably well. Just be careful as translators donâ??t always convert well. It has some very specific dates I was not fully aware of and a couple of contradictions when compared to English reference books. For example Mo908 instead of Mo909. I would be interested in a forum review of this site and any comments you may have. I like the site myself, but am interested in your comments.

Thanks

Interesting stuff! This is the first time that I have seen a production number (30) associated with the Carlos the First crested Portuguese, and that this 1900 model was actually ordered in 1906. Also I was not aware that the Royal Portuguese Navy Luger had a 9mm script magazine (I'm not so sure that is correct, but then there are lots of things I don't know).

Hello Ron,

Yes, the Portuguese Royal Navy Lugers can also be equipped with a 9 mm script magazine. My Royal Navy rig has a circle-triange proof mark on the magazine base for the magazine in the pistol, and the two spare magazines in the pouch are 9 mm script.

Cheers,
Albert
