The Stoeger Luger was identified by a simple public domain web site search for 3-line Stoeger Lugers, which resulted in an April 2013 series of questions posed to the Jan Still Luger Forum by a collector titled: Basically, the individual stated he had no knowledge of Stoeger Lugers and no idea whatsoever of the value of 405V, had the opportunity to acquire it from a relative, stating that the gun was in an attic for the last 40 years.

The majority of responses being mostly negative, citing questions regarding the lack of a C/N nitro proof on the un-serialized toggle link assembly breechblock and the 2-line Stoeger receiver left side. For the exact contents of the question and answer query go to the web and search Well, apparently the relative decided he didn’t want it or he sold it and the next guy didn’t want it, as I was notified by Simpson Ltd, two months later in June 2013 that they would be shortly receiving 405V which, immediately upon receipt by Simpson LTD was shipped to me with an asking price of $18,500. A following conversation with Simpson I was assured the gun was absolutely correct. When asked about the price I was told that was “what the seller wanted” and was non-negotiable. The following is a detailed description and assessment of 405V.

The evaluation was made, partially using information contained and information and comments from details and pictures provided to Dr. Sturgess, author of Description The The The however, the receiver left side lacks a DWM/BKIW C/N nitro proof. The barrel is a 9mm caliber, 150mm or 6-inch long replacement with an unusual, high luster salt-blue finish. The non-DWM manufacturer of the barrel is not known.

The Loaded stamped extractor is a replacement, being not original to the breechblock, as it has a 2-digit (68) on the underside rear tang with no corresponding number on the rear breechblock face.

The toggle link assembly is devoid of any proofs, serial numbers or factory inspection marks whatsoever. The breechblock top surface is a high polish blue contrasted with a dull extractor surface, whereas the middle and rear link are a dull matt blue. The top of the gun photographs poorly, mainly due to the toggle link assembly, where it exhibits a purple hue. Sturgess comments Sturgess agrees that: the frame marks and serial number look OK, but states that the rest of the gun appears to have been made up to suit. Was not struck with the same die as my 431v (see Fig 11-80), and other Stoegers in this serial number range, which have the damaged upper right leg of the Y, (actually the defective “Y” appears after 416v). The lack of crown/N on the receiver is quite atypical - my 'Peruvian' P.08 serial number 339v is very close to this gun's serial number, and has the C/N proof, as does 431v. Sturgess further states: The serial numbers on the extractor shows it to be an obvious replacement, but also the tapering of the LOADED marking is much less than similar Stoegers in this range, which have smaller DED letters than this one.
