Swiss Question

Edward Tinker · 02-22-2013, 08:54 PM

John, some folks love the Swiss guns, it is not one that I own, that is not to disparage them, just a personal feeling. However, I would like to eventually have one of each manufacturer

If it looks very much like the ones for sale on the retail websites mentioned, then I would be interested (If I was you). Not as many Swiss collectors and experts on the forums, but there are guys who know a lot more than me. But post pictures here and see what folks say.

Bobba, an Italian author wrote a very nice book on Swiss Lugers, a friend of mine is selling his collection, I have that book for sale here on the forum - sorry for the self plug

Are most Luger's import?, or is it best to stay away from imports.
Simpson's has so many and I see no mention if import's or not.
Does it matter ?.
I did look at the FGS web-site and talked to Craig and found that the web-site is not up to date and they have none of the Lugers and the owner has taken them to an auction house and they will be putting an up to date in about two weeks.
