Unit Marked Cutaway Luger

[Stucki]

Here is my cutaway of a Swiss Luger 06/29, SN 40003.

W+F made a very small quantity of 06/29 cutaways in a special serial number block. The SN started at 40000 (the numbering of the normal 06/29 started at 50000). My 06/29 cutaway has the SN 40003. SN 40004 is in the former collection of W+F, I don't know of any other 06/29 cutaway models from this SN block.

Some time ago I had the opportunity to photograph both guns (SN 40003 and SN 40004) together...

Fascinating! Looking at the barrel/extension cut, they would have had to mill the barrel and extension cuts separately, and then screw them together. The top barrel cut is also at an angle, to show off the threads differently from the other cut. Very impressive!
