DWM Model 1906 Commercial Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol in Scarce 9 mm Caliber

This is an example of a mid-production DWM Model 1906 Commercial Luger. There were only approximately 4,000 model 1906 Commercial Lugers manufactured for commercial sales with this example being chambered in 9mm Luger (parabellum) caliber, with the majority of these Model 1906 commercials being chambered for 7.65mm Luger. 9mm Luger was usually reserved only for military contracts. This 1906 Commercial model has the unmarked/blank chamber area with the "DWM" logo on the front toggle, and is correctly numbered in the commercial manner with the full serial number stamped on the front of the frame and underside of the barrel, and the last two digits of the serial number stamped on various small parts. It has the standard Commercial "Crown/N" proofmark on the left of the barrel extension, underside of the barrel, breech block and front toggle. First pattern safety with the lower area of the rear frame polished and unmarked, extractor marked "GELADEN", and fully checkered walnut grips. These early commercial Lugers have all hand-fitted parts with a beautiful rust blued finish overall with finely polished and straw colored small parts to include the trigger, take down lever, ejector and magazine release button. Correct early tin-plated commercial magazine with wood base. This example does not have any "GERMANY" markings, indicating it was likely sold commercially in Germany as opposed to being sent stateside.

ConditionExceptionally fine, retains 85% plus original blue finish with a few light wear spots towards the bottom of the grip straps, a few small patches of minor pitting on the sideplate, and sharp markings and edges in the metal overall. 50% original straw color remains on the small components with some light pitting on the safety lever. The grips are excellent with minimal handling evidence and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. This DWM Model 1906 Commercial Luger in 9mm, a much sought after Luger variation, would make a fine addition to any Luger collection!
