Dated 1917A on the chamber, with the "DWM" monogram on the toggle. Fitted with the distinctive blade front and tangent rear sights, numbered to match the gun with fine adjustment screws. The right side of the chamber has a set of three "crown/ gothic letter" proofs next to the Imperial Eagle firing proof, which is repeated on the barrel and breechblock. Matching full serial numbers on the barrel, frame and barrel extension, with matching partial numbers on the sights, extractor, toggles, locking bar, side plate, trigger, and safety components. Proper "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" marked upper safety position and extractor, with stock lug on the backstrap.

Very fine, with approximately 80% of the original blue finish, showing a gray patina concentrated around the high edges and scattered dings and dents. The barrel is showing the start of a mixed gray and brown patina along the sides, and mild dents and pitting is visible on the side plate hump, the front edges of the frame nails and edge of the trigger guard. Grips are good, with some pressure dents. Mechanically fine.
