1906 Portuguese Luger

Sergio Natali · 07-28-2014, 04:21 AM

Jon,

I think Vern has already done quite a good job with his post, in fact You've got a Portuguese "Manuel Secundo" that for some obsure reason was converted into a target shooter with deep alterations (adjustable rear sight!).
I don' t think it has any collectible value, but if you must have it properly checked by a good armourer before you use it at the range.
Remember:
1) proper check by a competent armourer
2) Never shoot modern high power cartridges with it.
3) Shoot safe.

Manuel Segundo (meaning Manuel the Second)

The reason for the conversion is not obscure. It's an excellent target pistol. Even in the military configuration I might add.

I think it is a very nice looking Luger that is most likely a really good shooter. I would be proud to have it in my safe.
