A 1925 DWM 1900: the beauty of the Swiss Commercial Contract Luger Pistol


and we thought the swiss just made time pieces! heres a beautiful vintage object of desire to just stare at.  just love having that sitting on my desk for when my “patients” misbehave. there were only 2000 commercial and 3000 military models produced with walnut grip, and this fast taper barrel (4 3/4″ long). this one has the original holster just incase you plan to take it on the road. estimate price: $2500 – 3500 by xy
