My New Cartridge Counter

Finally managed to locate a Mauser Cartridge Counter commemorative, serial number 176 von 250. The leather case is enclosed in the original white cardboard slip case which is further enclosed in the original cardboard carton, both bearing Interarms markings.

Aaron,

Congrats on finding the cart counter. My experience with these Mausers is that they lack the workmanship of their predecessors by a long shot.

Aaron, Great looking luger! I guess the new machinery wouldn't allow them to reproduce the 1900-1902 flat breachblock and extractor, but a very good effort, nevertheless.

I'm not a big fan of anything made after 1918

but that is a pretty impressive looking gun and accessories. Good going! Any chance of a photo of the left side of the magazine?
