Swiss Luger Accessories?
 
Are these authentic?

The cleaning kit and the front sight pusher look good to me, whereas the fine tune sight adjuster and pin punch are often reproduced. What about the cleaning rod?

I don't know Michael, but did the Swiss need the fine tune sight adjuster? Did they ever buy artillery models?

The seller is pretty well known for offering well made reproductions. The brass cleaning kit is undoubtedly authentic but they are relatively plentiful. The front sight pusher probably is a repro but can't say for sure. The cleaning rod is a police style and also probably a repro but in any event it isn't Swiss. As Niel noted, the Swiss didn't have LP08s and the pocket sight adjusting tool and pin punch are nearly always repros.

Ron, have you seen any reproductions of the Swiss front sight pusher? I paid through the nose for an authentic item sold by Kessler, and my Swiss sources claim that its likes cannot be found for love or money.

Yes, I have seen a bogus Swiss pusher. It had the Federal cross stamp but was made for a 9mm. Either it was the rarest Swiss tool, not many Swiss 9mms, or it was fake...I would opt for the latter.
