Hi,

Whether one accepts these as test Lugers or not, they most certainly are not counterfiets. They are a unique lot, all with the same characteristics, and scattered up to the 8000 serial number range. Like always, the last two digits on the left flat side of the take-down has some meaning and is unique for some reason. I do not know the answer, but some will say that these are the characteristics of the second lot of test Lugers. There are enough of them known, that they have to be some sort of special contract, at least in my opinion. Also, outside of the old "Reese" list, 6100 to 7100 roughly, and the serial numbers that Bannerman bought, there is no other data to suggest that they are not test pieces to my knowledge.
