Early Navval Luger Estimates

For information on documented issues, see Goertz and Walter, The Navy Luger, which provides information on issues based on the Tirpitz Plan. As to what survuved of these issues, there is only informed and mis-informed speculation.

Re: Navy marked ammunition, I have seen exactly 1 box in my 47 years of collecting, so draw your own conclusion as to its rarity. Other accoutrements are available but infrequently and priced correspondingly. There is an increasing presence of fake stuff appearing, particularly the ultra-rare zigzag rods.

FWIW, when (If??) I ever complete my work on the Navy guns, I will be posting a listing of several hundred serial numbers similar to what my friend and fellow Krieghoff afficinado, Tom Whiteman, has published.
