1900 Bulgarian Lugers

Dick -

Thanks very much for your help with this and for posting the pictures. It seems that the receiver and toggle assembly was likely from 1908 Bulgarian #4347. The full number on the left side of the receiver was added later, but the sear bar is also numbered 47, and perhaps the toggle parts as well (can't see those).

The frame appears to have been renumbered at some time, and the frame front picture isn't clear enough to see if there might be vestiges of another number underneath. Maybe it started out as 4347, maybe not. I think probably not as I don't see the point of renumbering it if it did.

In any case, I think we can safely add #4347 to the 1908 Bulgarian list, and thanks again for your help.

Mark
