Default Building a Swiss Luger Collection

Building a Swiss Luger Collection...One Luger At A Time...
As Pete would say.
I have managed to obtain the last two variations to complete my Swiss collection of primary models.




From left to right.
1900 Cross in Sun burst, 1900/06 Cross in Sun burst, 1900/06 Cross in Shield, 1906/19 Waffen Fabrik Bern, 1906/24 W+F.







All. but one of these Swiss Lugers were obtained here in New Zealand, the exception being the 1900/06 Cross in Shield.



The 1900/06 Cross in Sun burst is possibly the best condition Luger I have owned. I cannot fault it. 100% blue and straw, all matching including grips,
Serial #7983 I believe puts it into 1907 . It has a matching 1907 Holster.



The 1906/24 is in excellent condition and is dated 10.43 which makes it two months younger than me.
It does not have a private number but does have a large "P" stamped on the front of the trigger guard.




I will be happy to provide any photos or comments.

Kind wishes

Murray.
