Came across a M1900 Swiss...
Hello,
recently I came across a M 1900, 4th variaton with matching holster - causing some headache to me and my purse - but I was forced to acquire! Some light pitts on the muzzle right side - but easy to remove. Want to introduce it to you here!

Magnificent 1900 Swiss, Roland. I can understand how this gave your purse a headache! I have not seen one under $5K Amercan in this condition. Best of luck and I'm sure your headache will pass in due time! Pete Ebbink should have a little to say about this wondeful specimen.

One thing to improve...
Hi Roland and Doc,
The only thing I can see that might improve this very nice rig is that it be in my collection...!!! Roland, you have done well on this purchase Pete... |

Now that's my kind of Luger!!! It may not be the earliest, but it is pretty darn close to the start of production. Good going Sir! I would really love to find an '04 or earlier holster. I currently have an '09, so I envy you yours. Thank you for posting your great rig.

Take two aspirins and enjoy it! That's what I like to see to start off the New Year 2005!
Congratulations on the very fine acquisition. I appreciate the set you have built. Cheers, Albert |

Albert, thanks for the advice - now because of your all advanced collectors feedback and may be the aspirin,
my pain is turning down a bit! I forgot to say, the magazine in the gun is my own repro again. I still search for a really nice one and be shure I will come by some day! Last edited by pisto; 01-04-2005 at 11:45 AM. |
