Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Dated 1938 on the chamber, with the "S/42" code on the toggle. Early eagle/63 proofs on the right side of the barrel extension and the left side of the breechblock, and "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" on the upper safety area and extractor, respectively. All numbers match. Checkered hardwood grips and blue magazine with renumbered aluminum base.

Rating Definition:

Very good with 93% of the current blue, showing a mixed gray patina on the sides of the muzzle, brighter gray along the high edges, overall thinning on the grip straps, and scattered handling marks with some very, very fine pin-prick pitting just starting on the top edge of the side plate. Grips show mild pressure dents with light wear. Mechanically excellent.
