In 1922 the Abercrombie & Fitch Company of New York, known then as the "Greatest Sporting Goods Store In the World" imported 100 of these Lugers from Switzerland to sell at a then sales price of $40.00. This model is a 9mm with a 120mm barrel (4 3/4").                           (510)

 

This is a 1906 Model with the squeeze grip safety, the DWM (Deutsche Waffen-und Munitionsfabriken AG) log on the first toggle link and the Swiss Cross over the Chamber.

Serial number placement is in the commercial ("hidden") style; displayed on the left side of the receiver, the bottom of the side plate, the locking bolt,  the front of the frame, under the barrel, and on the side of the trigger. This whole gun has matching serial numbers. 

This weapon has the no stock lug and clean grips. The grips are original and made of walnut. The magazine is the "Swiss" type with the distinctive discs in the magazine..

The extractor is marked "Geladen" on the left side and the safety is polished with the safe position being upward. The rear sight is a  "V" cut fixed and front dovetailed sight and the frame comes without the stock lug.

The bore is excellent and the overall condition is very good.  This is a collector grade gun and a welcome addition to anyone's private collection.

The inside of the gun is very clean and shows that someone has cared for this fine Luger for over 80 years.

This is a very difficult variation to find in such fine condition.
