This is a very nice Luger, and you'll be impressed.

Note that it was made in Germany (Berlin) by DWM under a contract for the Swiss. There are other later Lugers that were actually made by the Swiss.

They took good care of their firearms. Many of these are in remarkable condition for their age. As mentioned above, they had a regular maintenance program.

The Swiss M1900, 1900/06 and W+F manufactured 1906/24 Lugers all incorporate strawed parts. The later ones made by the Swiss were all blued.

Note that many of Simpson's Swiss Lugers are import marked.
