It probably isn't appropriate to ask here but I am curious, what is the cost of such a crest redo?
Here ya go!

Just a note on the receiver...it's a DWM 1906, which obviously isn't correct for the later Swiss Bern 1906. My thoughts were to keep the crest because A, it looks so good, and B, I didn't want anyone to think I was possibly faking a correct Swiss Bern 1906. This one is what it is...a NICE Swiss shooter, but still a shooter.

Before...just back from G.T. Barrel fitted, ready for test-firing. The toggle train, trigger plate and frame are original and numbered. Barrel and receiver were from "LugerDoc".




All done. Nice work by Thor and Brian Powley
