Description

Synopsis:

Attractive DWM 1900 Swiss Military Luger with correct magazine.

Description:

Standard configuration M1900 Swiss Military Luger, .30 Luger, relatively early production, with 4.75” tapered barrel drift adjustable fire blued front sight, fixed U-notch rear sight, and short checkered head safety. Flat top breech block, fitted with later extractor, the toggle train having dished ears and anti-rebound lock. Chamber marked with cross in sunburst. Intertwined DWM on middle toggle link. Small Swiss proofs on left side of the receiver. Full serial number under barrel and forward frame. All small parts correctly matched with the last two or three digits of the serial number. Usual strawed small parts. Finely checkered walnut grips, both panels matching. Correct original magazine, unmarked, with base having inserted discs.

Condition:

G/VG original finish with moderate holster wear in expected locations, the front/back straps having largely faded, as one might expect from a Military pistol that has seen moderate service. Comparable condition small parts with the straw on the safety lever and fireblue on the grip screws having been freshened. Comparable condition grips with oil darkening and blunted diamonds. VG+ magazine, the left side of the body having staining/etching as photographed. Mirror bright bore. Perfect manual mechanics. A nice 1900 Swiss Military Luger whose later extractor can be easily replaced.
