Description

Synopsis:

Swiss military DWM 1900 Luger, all matching with correct magazine.

Description:

Standard configuration M1900 Swiss military Luger, .30 Luger, this example deaccessioned in 1960, with 4.75″ tapered barrel with drift adjustable front sight and fixed “U” notch rear sight. Flat top breech block with later variation extractor, toggle train having dished ears and anti-rebound arm. Chamber marked with Swiss Cross in Sunburst. Intertwined DWM on middle toggle link. Small Swiss proofs on left side of barrel, left receiver, rear toggle link and back of frame. Full serial number under barrel and forward frame. All small parts correctly serialized with last two-three digits. Usual strawed small parts, the safety lever with the small serrated head. Finely checkered walnut grips. Correct original magazine, unmarked, with base having inserted disks.

Condition:

VG/EXC with wear commensurate with a pistol that has seen careful service use. The extractor has been upgraded with a later/sturdier variation and the rear sight modified from a V to a U notch. Touch up has been applied to the sideplate. No other enhancements noted. The small parts with their original straw. Mirror bore. Perfect manual mechanics. A very nice looking 1900 Swiss military Luger, that could be easily upgraded with the substitution of an era-correct extractor.
