In relation to thread # 3 can anyone share what is in the Costanzo "World of Lugers" on the 1906 Navy?
I don't have that book.
thanks

Hi Jack, A number of people have attempted to list all the surviving Imperial Navy Lugers, the first to do so was Pat Redmond in 1975. Sam Costanzo reprinted this list, with a few additions in "World of Lugers", published in 1977. In later years the list was updated by other individuals, most notably Leo Lavallee. I've been maintaining, and adding to, this list since 2009. In some ways we all stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before.
Regards, Norm
