Hi Ron,

I've been going through Reese's book on the U.S. Test Trials, and wondered if they had a seperate serial number range. I have to admit that if Bobba said "up to 22000" serial number range for the 8th variation, then that would have been a lot of pistols made in 1905-06.

But, I see that the commercial range wasn't interrupted by DWM, and yes, it's more logical to imagine a pistol with 1900-01parts to be built at that time, and not 4 or so years later.

My apologies for jumping to conclusions. That's why it's important to meet knowledgeable Gents such as yourself, in order for me to learn more.

Even better to know that my 1900 pre-dates the Test Trial Lugers. I'd be smarter to hold on to it, and look for that errant IDEAL stock.......................

Cheers,

Bill
