Newbie with Swiss Luger

[Pete Ebbink]

Hi Fredo,

No problem...I usually type in my words, first, and then go back and insert a photo...you probably logged on while I was doing the 2nd. step.

p.s.

You have a lovely looking luger...one you should be very proud to own. Congratulations...

p.p.s.

I have attached the web site link to a Luger Forum member, Stefan Mahrer, who lives in Switzerland. He might have a holster in stock that you could buy. The holster photo in my 1st. posting, above, is one I bought from Stefan...

The holsters for the M1900 and M1906 Swiss lugers came without the spare magazine pouch attached to the top...sometimes there were added by the gun/holster owner. I have one of each holsters...with and without the top pouch.

Here is a photo of my other M1900/M1906 holster w/out the top pouch...this one is dated '04...

If Stefan has one for you, the date on the holster should be '28 or a bit later...since your gun was made in 1928...would not make sense for your 1928 luger to be mated with a holster made in...say 1909...just my opinion, though.

Regards,

Pete... <img border="0" alt="[typing]" title="" src="graemlins/yltype.gif" />
