S.n. in lever of the insurance?

Hello to all ... after seeing many photographies of luger ... not if the numeration in the lever of the insurance is normal. That think you?

Regards

I think you are asking, if the serial number is needed for insurance; here in the states; it depends on the insurance company on what they need or want.

Hi Ed, He is referring to the safety lever. I guess Google translated it to "lever of insurance". Regards, Norm

The last two digits of the serial number are stamped on many of the parts of a Luger.

Some of the lugers include the number stamped into the safety lever. Some do not.

Your gun is a Mauser, and I believe that these should have the number stamped in the safety.

Ok, me re-oficios a números "94" en la palanca del seguro.
El ser Mauser se debe de tomar por ellos ellos .... ok.
Clarificado tema.
Muchas gracias

I think Antonio may be referring to my comment in his other thread of my not knowing that the safety lever (the thumb piece with the grooves) had a number. My S/42 does indeed have a number, but the font is so small and the strike fairly light that I never noticed it until I looked at his close-up pics.

Neither of my commercials has it. Interesting that the military models would be pretty much all-numbered, but not so with the commercial models.

Leads to the question: Were the commercials held to a higher standard than the militaries??? Was it easier to have bins full of [military] parts and just keep swapping in parts until they worked??? And leave the hand-fitting to the commercials that could be worked on at leisure???

Postino,
Military standards were higher than commercials. Many commercials were made with military rejected parts.
