Love the guns...only improvement could be lower prices...

Interesting. There is a 1906 Cross in Shield listed as 9mm??? About a month or so ago they had a 1900 unrelieved frame/flat button mag Commercial with a 9xx serial number for $9999. Now a 9xx Swiss Commercial unrelieved turns up for $12,995! Wow, talk about coincidences and skyrocketing prices. By the way, the flat button magazine for this one is incorrect. It is a military, not commercial. Of course, both are so rare...who cares?!

Very interesting. A "flood" of three Swiss lugers appeared recently at Mike Krause's shop in San Mateo. A 1900 Military serial #18XX, a 1900 Commercial #52XX and a beautiful 100% wide trigger, serial # unrecalled. I was lucky enough to land the first two but the third got away. Prices were much lower than the Galesburg shop. I don't know where these are coming from, but keep them coming!

Wow, Eight more Lugers added today at Simpsons, half of them Swiss. The "flood" continues. No let up on prices, though.
