Albert,

I sent you an email. Your tangent-sighted M1900 is very unique. I haven't come across another early model with these features and a barrel of this length. I think it is truly one-of-a-kind. The toggle mounted tangent sights are works of art and I aspire to someday add a tangent-sight Luger to my collection.

A little more info about my fixed sight sn 10010- it has been 'fixed up' a little bit between when it was photographed in black and white by Sturgess and when it came into my possession last year. It has been refinished to some extant and the original narrow grip safety has been replaced with a wide one. The grips have also been replaced. The action is tight and the bore is very nice leading me to believe it was shot very little.
