Cutawy of Swiss Pistol 06/29
 

New toy...:): Cutaway of a Swiss Luger Model 06/29, caliber 7,65mm Para, SN 40003. Obviously it’s an original cutaway produced by the Waffenfabrik Bern (W+F):

• There are no ordinary Pistols 06/29 in this number range. The numbering of Pistols 06/29 began with SN 50000. There is another cutaway of a pistol 06/29 in the 40000 number range with SN 40004. This pistol is located in the RUAG collection (former W+F collection).
  
• The cutaway SN 40003 shows on the left side the inscription KTA 55.117 (KTA = Kriegstechnische Abteilung).

Cutaways of Pistols 06/29 are rare - beside SN 40003 and 40004 I know for sure only from one other W+F cutaway. This pistol has SN V19 and is also located in the RUAG collection.

From time to time cutaways within the ordinary SN range appears. I suppose that these cutaways are not originals produced by the W+F, but I’m not sure about this. All known original W+F cutaways of the Pistol 06/29 do not have any proof- or acceptances stamps.

Very cool! :)

It does seem to have some wear...Was it from an armorers school or something similar???

Thanks for sharing - I had never seen a Swiss cutaway before!

Beautifully thought out placement of all cuts, to show the operation of all parts. Thanks, Tom

Congratulations on obtaining a very beautifully executed and rare factory cutaway!

Great looking piece.
I like cutaways.
Thank you for sharing.

I had never seen a Swiss cutaway before, thanks for sharing, sorry for the poor Swiss though!

today I was for short visit in the RUAG collection in Thun / Switzerland and had the opportunity to bring my SN 40003 together with SN 40004 from the RUAG collection.

Very nice!

Beautiful, I like cutaways too, but thank God at least they are only two W+F 1906/29 ...
