Gentlemen,

Starting out at $4800.
This is THE pistol.

[quote] Peeping he pistol Mod.1900 with the mono gram of "GL" George Lugers
from the possession of the president Julio A. Rocca. Serial number 10000. Kal. 7.65 Para. Without bombardment. Bright run. The front joint with the DWM Logo, the Hintergelenk with the mono gram of "GL" laid out for George Luger, both later also gold. Caper burnishing, the small articles and extractors yellow started. Nachgedunkelte nut wood grip caps. New nickel plated crease magazine with timber flooring without No. in addition the black box reproduction, laid out with green felt and, except a screwdriver, without contents.
Total condition as new with immaculate, renewed burnishing.
The pistol originates from the deduction of the former Argentine president general Julio A. Roca, to who it had been presented as gift. Enclosed certified copy of Argentine army archives for the origin of the weapon.

Edward,

Auction. Oct 17, 2002 12:00:00. It has been 'restored'. (Am I correct?)

This piece is from the German auction house of Hermann Historica. The gun has been restored and the case is a reproduction.

Ron,
What is the make of the case? Is it an Ertel?

Ron Wood · 10-09-2002, 12:59 AM

Can't say for sure since I don't know what the interior is like, but I would wager $5 that it is an Ertel (I can afford to lose $5).
