Fixed sights, with a full "1936" date on the chamber and the front toggle marked with the 1936 "C-3" pattern Krieghoff logo. Matching serial numbers are present on the barrel, frame, extension, sideplate, toggle assembly, trigger and takedown lever, with "Krieghoff eagle/2" acceptance proofs on the barrel, frame, breechblock and receiver, and the "Eagle" firing proof on the barrel, extension and breechblock. The barrel also has the "8,86" internal diameter mark on the underside. Fitted with straw colored small parts, niter blue screws and pins, a set of brown checkered grips, and a Haenel Schmeisser Patent marked replacement magazine with an unmarked base with the number removed. Includes a brown leather shoulder holster with small "eagle" stamp and a faint Hanover address on the back.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, with 85% plus original blue finish, showing minor scratches and brown patina concentrated on the gripstraps, mild handling marks and edge wear overall. and some light spotting. 50% of the original straw color is present, and strong niter blue in the protected areas. Mechanically excellent. The holster is fair, with torn straps and mild wear.
