Description:

This is a 1929 Swiss Military Luger manufactured by the Bern factory in Switzerland. This was the last series of Luger produced by the Bern factory. The chamber area is unmarked with the front toggle having the "Swiss Cross in a Shield" markings. The matching serial number is marked on the left side rail. Left side of the barrel at the breech and on top of the rear toggle ahead of the rear sight. The left side frame rail is marked with the "+/M" rework proof of Colonel Muhlemann ahead of the serial number and the underside is marked "SWITZERLAND". The underside of the right frame rail is import marked. There is a small "BP" proof at top of the barrel, the underside is marked with a small Swiss cross acceptance proof and there is a "P" on the front of the trigger guard indicating release by the Swiss Government. The magazine is tin plated with an un-numbered brown plastic base and it is fitted with checkered brown plastic grips. Comes with a brown leather holster with a "Swiss cross/J" stamped on the inside of the flap, stamped "A.BOPP/RUPPERSWIL/63" on the back and extra plated magazine with plastic base.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The pistol retains 85% plus faded original matte blue finish with some muzzle and edge wear, and some thinning and light spotting on the grip safety and grip straps. The grips are excellent with a small area of wear, a few minor dings and sharp checkering. The markings are clear. The mechanics are excellent. The holster is very good with some minor flex wear/cracking, scattered small dark spots and tight stitching.
