Hello Ron,
Your reason is right that it is a duplicate which may cause some confusion, so I shall treat both discussions separately on each forum. Nonetheless, my post continues to have some meaning to this subject where LOB's reference and comparisons to large Mosin-Nagant rifle diagrams was going to extremes in order to authenticate the M1900 and M1906 'Russian Lugers' as contract Lugers delivered to Russia.
As you probably agree with me, a roll-die used at the DWM factory will not hold all the secrets to a particular Luger such as the case with the 'Russian Luger'. If there was ever a Luger pistol which had crossed canons on the chamber, could anybody say to which country it was delivered, besides the emblem/symbol having a connection to the artillery?
Albert
