Swiss Luger Model 1906 24/29 Pistol - 7.65 Caliber, Semi-Auto, 4.75" BBL, 8rd, Manufactured by Waffenfabrik Bern in Switzerland - C & R Eligible

Swiss Luger Model 1906 24/29Pistol, 7.65 Caliber Semi-Auto, 4.75" Barrel 8rd - Manufactured by Waffenfabrik Bern in Switzerland for the Swiss Military. One of the rarest and most desirable of all the Luger model pistols, the Swiss Luger is a Cadillac among handguns. The intricate toggle lock action demonstrates the refined machining and accuracy of Swiss firearm manufacturing; and the design was revolutionary - among the first semiautomatic designs adopted by a major military. These pistols fire the original 7.65 Parabellum round, also known as .30 Luger or 7.65 x 21mm, rather than the more well-known 9mm Parabellum that would be later adopted. This round is basically a necked down 9mm round that fires a lighter .30 caliber projectile at a flatter trajectory and a higher rate of speed. Privi and Fiocchi continue to produce this round, as do some other manufacturers. Very small quantity available.

These are in Good to Very Good surplus condition and all of the ones in this particular group are in very similar condition. ; All are 100% functional and should make great shooters and certainly very collectible pieces of history. 

The Swiss adopted three different versions of the Luger pistol. The M1900 was manufactured by DWM in Germany. The M1906 and 06/24 saw DWM continue to produce pistols but the Swiss began native production on the 1906/29's at Waffenfabrik Bern, which will be marked "Waffenfabrik Bern" in text on the toggle lock.
