The "cross rifle" Russian lugers are just your standard M1906 type DWM made short frame 9mms with the crest on chamber, Russian marked extractor and safety area, in their own contract serial numbered range of about 1 to 500. I've also observed another 20 commerical type luger that is either a mistake or might be consider "Russian". The only thing different about it is that the N under the crown proofing on the left receiver, is stamped backwards, like some sort of Cyrillic letter. Has anyone else observed one of these? TH
