Thumb Safety Question

Norme,

Thanks for the info! BYW, Norme, it was your photos that I was referencing in the OP.

Believe it or not, for some reason when I saw your photo above, I thoutht that when 'Gesichert' was exposed, that it was ready to fire... Yeah, I know early Alzheimers (every day is a new day with it)!!

What seems to be a simple change (up or down) is really, seemingly a significant change!!

So, to ask a clarification, do the vast majority of Lugers have the safety on with thumb safety up? Is there a date when it became standardized?
