Early Navval Luger Estimates

cirelaw · 02-25-2008, 06:15 PM

I am lucky enough to purchase this month what Ive always wanted a 1908 Navy Luger, with the stock, and black holster to follow. I wondered how come some many relativly were produced and distributed to various crews. It dawned on me, that this particular Luger, had served two world wars, torpedos, sinkings, scuttlings, rusty, saltyy wet, damp, diesal fuemy etc. Its truly amazing that any survived. Has any actual accounting exist of those Naal and accoutraments surviving to this day. Or whether a study was done of which proportunate group,For example, the !900 Test Luger with holster, Another example, it took me three years to find a full box of DWM 1900 ammo (green box 471) Ive never come across a naval anything, not even one single round. I invite the comments of our resident expert to determine what has survived and more scarce, what is still available. I know of one other member whose Navy is close to mine, 2501b,Im hoping our resident luger bookkeeper may shed some light. This is surely an instance when the gown was more costly than the bride
