Default More Commercial survey

Will this project never end?

Due to a massive database graciously given to me by another collector, my own database is getting quite large. I still fully intend to publish it on the Forum with commentary, but I am looking for some additional information.

First off, the survey now extends through the end of the 5-digit serial# Commercial series. For these pistols I am looking for: the model e.g. P-08 Commercial, Commercial Navy, Commercial Artillery, Carbine, 1914 Commercial w/stock lug; 20 Commercial (formerly 23 Commercial); full serial# (no xx's); chamber date if it is there; whether or not there is a Commercial proof mark and if so whether it is "lazy" or upright; military proofs (3c/X, etc.) if present; Safe/Loaded safety and extractor if present; markings on the bottom of the magazine if original.

For 1906 Lugers I would like to know (in addition to all the other info) if the extractor is marked GELADEN or LOADED.

If anyone has 1900 or 1906 American Eagle, Commercial, or other commercial serial range Lugers they haven't yet reported, see http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthre...&threadid=3731 for the original call for info.

Post your info here, or email me dwightg@pacifier.com . As usual, I will keep sources confidential if requested.

Thanks again to everybody who has sent me info so far, and thaks in advance for the new info.
