Info on Swiss Luger

Even when worn, the Swiss Bern arsenal offered to renew them (essentially to new condition) when they were decommissioned and privatized.

The Swiss are a nation of target shooters. Many that retired from their military service continued to compete in well attended events at Swiss ranges.

If you wanted to do this, or even anticipated selling the pistol after acquiring it, you would be well compensated by having a worn Luger rebuilt by the arsenal.

The Swiss Lugers are very well made, and to a high level of precision. Much of the metal of later revision pistols was fabricated by SIG at their Neuhausen facility.
