1902 American Eagle "Fat Barrel" Luger

Tony S. · 11-27-2003, 10:33 AM

While doing some research, I understood that the U.S. Army bought 50 7.65mm 1902's which were later replaced by 50 9mm Cartridge Counter Lugers brought in personally by Georg Luger. Now, where these guns marked diferently? Were they marked here in the US as well and How? Where there other American Eagles "Fat Barrel" purchased that were not Cartridge Counter? According to some information that I found and gun?, the U.S. Government purchased 3 'Commercially-sold' 1902 AE Lugers 4" Fat Barrel. How can I find the serial numbers of these Lugers, if the above statement is correct? I will post some pics of the gun in question in the near future.
Thanks, Tony
