The pattern they chose was a &#8220;new model&#8221; Luger in 9x19mm, with a 100mm \/ 4&#8243; barrel. A total of 650 were ordered in late 1909 and delivered between 1910 and 1912. The guns had Portuguese-language safety and extractor markings (&#8220;<em>Seguranca<\/em>&#8221; and &#8220;<em>Carregada<\/em>&#8220;) and included grip safeties. They were in a dedicated serial number range of 1 to 650. The first 350 were delivered under the reign of Portuguese King Manuel II and had crown-over-anchor chamber crests. With the establishment of a Republic in Portugal, that marking was changed to &#8220;R.P.&#8221; over an anchor, which was used on the remaining guns (351-650).<\/p>\n<p>In the mid 1930s, the Navy ordered another 156 m\/910 Luger pistols, this time from the Mauser company. These had the same Portuguese markings, but without any special crest &mdash; just blank chambers. They were numbered in Mauser&#8217;s export\/commercial serial number range, and are in the &#8220;v&#8221; block of numbers. A few more very small orders were placed in 1941 and 1942, but these were filled with basically straight German P08 pistols.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>All the best firearms history channels streaming to all major devices:<br \/>\nweaponsandwar.tv<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/utreon.com\/c\/forgottenweapons\/<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&#038;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGZNMHNnbGpfQTBiRDBYOGRORmNtSXNaS2ttZ3xBQ3Jtc0trTVU5M3J6RzF1dHFSRUgxNUNzc3BWNVF6ODFOZm5nZ1k5ZkdjUnRDSkJOR1JYUWpBZXFERWgyR1lJV0tWdGx6WU9wU3JfS1NqVXpaNTYyUW1FOFpvNmRBaXBEellQZTJwajdkSzZsSDBtMW5DV1RBaw&#038;q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.floatplane.com%2Fchannel%2FForgottenWeapons&#038;v=acmQALXWbzc\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.floatplane.com\/channel\/For&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! <a href=\"http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/shop.forgottenweapons.com<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forgotten Weapons Published 2 Nov 2024 Following Portuguese Army adoption in 1908, the Portuguese Navy adopted the Luger in 1909 as the m\/910.
