I am only learning about the 1906/29, and other Lugers from reading about them, so the "up to 1943" information may not be correct. 1946 was the final year of manufacture for these weapons I believe, but Maj. Mühlemann was the factory inspector between 1913 and 1941. So his mark would not be found on a 1906/29 produced in 1946? Again referring to my notes, I read that Major Hauri was the inspector between 1942 -1946

I have found with my other passion, Thompson Submachine guns, that a lot of the earlier books written on the subject contain some inaccurate information, which later books on the subject have corrected.
