| Description: |
| 30 Luger; 98% blue, 98% straw, excellent bore, excellent grips, 4 3/4'' barrel, The very first group of production Lugers were produced for the Swiss military and delivered in 1901. They were made with the advice and supervision of a group of ten Swiss military officers known as the "Pistol Commission". From these first deliveries of 610 pistols, ten pistols, numbers E601 to E610 were designated to be given to the members of the Pistol Commission. The only marking designation of these 10 pistols was an E next to the Swiss Cross proof on the left side of the receiver, and the serial number in the 601 to 610 range. This information is documented by text and data from the Swiss Federal Archives in a book written by Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess and published by Brad Simpson Publishing, "The Borchardt & Luger Automatic Pistols", pages 212-213 (see copies). Another of these pistols, s/n 603, is pictured on page 213. The names of the Pistol Commission members are known but the two known pistols owners are not so far identified. Original blued finish and strawed small parts with checkered walnut grips. Swiss Cross in Sunburst crest on top of the chamber. Unrelieved frame with partially relieved magazine well. Unmarked early "flat button" Swiss magazine, having the disc wood base. Matching serial numbers on the numbered parts including the grips. Excellent+ grips and bore. Excellent+ "Flat Button" magazine. Ref: Sturgess Vol I Page 212-213. An extremely rare and historic Luger!, s/n E6xx, Catalog Number OK-05 |
