DWM Model 1906 Swiss "Cross In Shield" Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol with Holster

Gauge: 7.65 mm Luger Auto
Barrel: 4 3/4 inch round

Item Views: 1900
Serial Number:
Catalog Page: 286
Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Blade front and fixed notch rear sights, with the "DWM" monogram on the toggle link and a Swiss Cross on a striped shield on the chamber. Theories vary on the meaning of the shield; it is possibly a military or police contract marking. Small Swiss Cross proofs are present on the barrel, extension, breech block and rear of the frame with a "+/V" on the extension, "GELADEN" extractor and bright-polished safe position. Excluding the magazine base, toggle pin and firing pin, the numbers match. Fitted with a fast-taper barrel, grip safety, straw and niter blue finished small parts, checkered walnut grips, and a nickel magazine with an unmarked hardwood base. A Swiss-pattern flap holster is included, marked "FRIED.BIGLER/BERN/19" on the back with a cartridge pouch on the flap.

Rating Definition:

Very good with 95% of the Swiss Arsenal blue finish showing some areas of gray patina primarily concentrated around the high edges and muzzle along with some light handling marks. The straw and niter blue colors are strong and vivid overall. Grips are excellent with some darkening of the color and sharp checkering overall. The holster is fair with some cracking and scuffs. Mechanically excellent.
