This is a very rare early production Swiss model 1906 commercial contract Luger pistol as produced by the DWM/Mauser factory, with the "Cross in Sunburst" crest on the chamber and DWM logo on the front toggle. This specific Swiss Luger is even more rare in that it has the early letter "V" suffix code in the serial number. These were only produced for a very short time before the DWM factory switched to the standard five-digit serial number block. This example has the correct polished/milled lower safety position with no markings with the "GELADEN" marked extractor. It has the distinctive fast taper barrel, 1906 style grip safety with no stock lug, flat toggles and correct Swiss cross proof on the various parts. The pistol is complete with one original nickel plated magazine with an unmarked wooden base.

Excellent with 95% of the original factory blued finish overall, with wear and finish loss on the edges and high spots overall. The various small parts retain 65% of their straw colors. The grips are also in excellent condition with nice distinct checkering on both sides, with the typical small repair directly under the safety lever with the right grip showing some professional refreshening of the checkering. It has matching numbers on the various parts except the magazine as noted, the firing pin and grips which are correctly unnumbered. Additionally the first digit on the receiver serial number has been factory over stamped.
