Manufactured in 1940 as one of 2,420 (serial numbers 507,681 to 60,100) Model 1929 Luger pistols produced by Waffinfabrik Bern that year as found on page 55 of "The Swiss Variations" by Fred Datig. Swiss "cross in shield" crest on the front toggle link, "cross" and "BP" (Bernerprobe) proofed. Matching serial numbers visible on the frame, rear toggle, and barrel, with matching partial on the extension. The left of the extension is marked "P 51", indicating release from the military for private purchase in 1951. Fitted with a pair of circled "F/W" marked checkered plastic grips and a nickel plated magazine with plastic base.

Exceptionally fine as arsenal refurbished, retaining most of the finish with some light edge wear, dried grease in the action, minor handling marks, and crisp markings. The grips are very fine with some minor handling wear in the otherwise crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
