Hello Ron,

Thanks so much for the great follow-up info. You are such a storehouse of early luger info.!!!

I had forgotten that I actually do have the C. Reinhart book...and I do see that # 465 on page 93.

This is/such an elegantly designed luger...especially that 1st. variation thumb safety lever. I understand now your focus and specialization of your collection to "early" lugers only...after the model 1900, all others just seem like "mere" impersonations...

I will forward a copy of this page to the Owner...(who lives somewhere between No. California and Cambridge, MA...)

Any guess to current value on this gun ? $ 3-4K, $ 4-5K, $ 6-7K ?...remembering it might be a Bern rework...?

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
