Description:

This is a very fine example of a desirable Swiss model 1906 military contract Luger pistol as produced by the DWM factory. It has the distinctive "Cross in Shield" crest on top of the chamber and DWM monogram on the front toggle. The extractor is correctly marked "GELADEN" and the safety area is correctly polished in the lower position with no markings. It has the distinctive fast taper barrel, grip safety, no stock lug, and flat toggles. It is correctly proofed with the Swiss cross on the barrel with the two Swiss proofs present on the left side of the barrel extension, along with a large "P 26" release stamp. The full serial number (6244) is stamped on the barrel and frame, with the partial serial number (44) on the various parts. The pistol is complete with one nickel plated magazine with an unmarked wooden base.

Rating Definition:

Very fine with 90% plus of the Swiss armory rust blued finish, with blue loss on the front frame rails, side plate hump with some old minor touch up blue on the grip straps. The various small parts retain 30% of their original straw color overall. The grips are very good plus with nice checkering, some minor handling marks and a few minor nicks. This pistol has all matching numbers except the firing pin which is unnumbered. A nice example of a scarce 1906 Swiss contract Luger pistol.
