Questions on Imperial marking and Pins
 
Here are some pictures I am posting for Robert.

I have two questions for this posting;
1. What imperial luger is this correct for?
2. Why is there a size diff. in these two luger toggle pins?

Thanks,
Robert

The trigger is for an Erfurt Luger. When correctly installed, the stamp will be on the right side of the pistol. The two pins are different because one is a standard flange (on the right) while the other is the large flange Navy pin.

Short answers:
1. Erfurt arsenal
2. Large Pin - Navy Luger
Small Pin - Standard Luger

Ed, Thanks for posting these!

Doubs and Ron, thank you for the info these were some of the parts that came recently from the former Soviet Union.

Now whats this stuff worth? any ideas!

Hessian, I usually check Numrich arms for prices, then a good market indicator, is to put them onto e-bay. The market there is a bit wild and "usually" you can get more than you'd think, but it is a fickle market and I've lost money on something I thought for sure would go for a good price?

"Now whats this stuff worth?"

I'm not really sure about value but IMO the Navy pin will probably bring more than you might imagine. Tom A could likely give you a fair estimate of the Navy pin value.

I would imagine it makes a big difference if these are "orginal" parts or parts made later, or repro's?

Robert, Your Navy style (larger flange diameter) is only correct for a M1908 and later Navy. TH

My Frankenschloss rework is a first issue (modified) 1906 Navy and it has the large flange pin. It's a long frame new model. I'm no expert on Navies and I'm curious about that.

Ron Wood 11-22-2003 02:01 AM

My 1906 First Issue (Altered) Navy has the small flange pin.

The navy pin should bring about $100 or so.
