Hugh,
I'm glad you got it sorted out. Now to address one of my pet peeves. There is no such thing as a "06/24 Bern"...the Swiss started producing these in 1918, not 1924, so the "24" should be dropped and the model could be "1900/06 Waffenfabrik Bern" or just "1906 (or 06) Bern"...anything that indicates it was manufactured by Waffenfabrik Bern, not DWM, and is of the Model 1906 configuration.
