Commercial Navy lot at auction
I would have to wait until my rowboat comes in, but this one got my attention. Does it show up on any naughty list? Any other red flags? I note the toggle axle retaining pin is looking a little dark, although it does have a proper blip in its center...

Hi David,
I only track military Navies, Dwight Gruber lists all Commercial Lugers. The auctioneer's description says professionally restored and I have no reason to doubt his judgement, However, he does list two different serial numbers, 51361 and 67507. According to Dwight's list either one of these would be a credible number for a 1906 Commercial Navy. Norm |

RIA is good about answering questions, ask them about the serial number.
