Description:

This two-digit serial numbered example is one of a reported 2,000 Model 1900 Swiss contract Lugers manufactured and has the rare, early "unrelieved" type frame. Features fixed blade front and notch rear sights, Swiss "cross in sunburst" crest on top of the chamber, "DWM" monogram on the front toggle, dished toggles with toggle lock, a flat breech bolt, grip safety, no stock lug, and fast taper barrel. Matching serial numbers on the barrel, frame, takedown lever, side plate, trigger, magazine release, toggle links, breech block, and grip safety. Fitted with matching checkered walnut grips. The nickel finished flat button magazine is fitted with a hardwood base. "P61" Swiss release stamp on left side of barrel extension.

Rating Definition:

Exceptionally fine, retains 90% plus original blue finish, 85% arsenal refurbished straw finish on the small parts, with finish wear on the bottom grip strap edge ahead of the magazine well and leading edges of the frame, and a few small patches of minor freckling. Grips are excellent, with minimal handling evidence and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
