I was hoping for a Swiss Luger shooter. The private series 06/29 would have been perfect, as set up with a rear sight U-notch matching a retrofitted SIG P210 front sight. Bob Simpson would price this pistol around $2750.00, and may yet get to do so. The early 06/24 might have been too pretty to shoot, and would have been mine even at a much higher price, had I been bidding in person rather than through an international phone proxy. Faster on the draw the next time.
