Heinz,
I second your emotion. Bravo. While I appreciate Petes input, which demonstrates how widespread this problem is, I thought, when I started this topic, that this would be a terrific learning experience for the people on this website. I think that I am accomplishing that goal. Maybe some people here who have commercial marked, 1920's, model 1914, navy Lugers can chime in here? It seems that someone here once mentioned that he had one. I'll have to go thru my navies to see if I have something along that order.

I have received an email from Doug and I have looked at his altered Ebay sale. I believe that his passion shows that he is trying to do the right thing. Whatever he thinks that is. That is why I earlier requested that Lugerforum people cut him some slack. Lets keep this a learning experience. Thats what this forum is all about.

As I wrote to Doug in reply to his email, I believe that this toggle is a hybrid. Why anyone would put an authentic adjustible sight part on a repro toggle is beyond me. If your going to change the rear sight from authentic to repro and then sell the authentic one separately, then why mix up the pieces? But this is a side issue and distracts from the point of this thread.
