Description:

The chamber is dated "1937" and the Mauser code "S/42" is on the toggle. "Droop wing eagle/63" and firing proofs are stamped on the right barrel extension and barrel. Full serial number on the frame (with "v" suffix), barrel extension, and barrel, with the partial serial number "32" on the takedown latch, side plate, sear, safety bar, thumb safety, extractor, toggle, and toggle link. Properly marked safety position and extractor. All blue finish with checkered walnut grips and mismatched blue aluminum base magazine. Complete with brown leather holster and mismatched extra magazine. The back of the holster is stamped "KARL BOCKER / 1940 / WALDBROL" next to an "eagle/WaA727" proof.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The pistol retains 98% plus original blue finish with some minor thinning on the grip straps, some scattered minor edge wear, and some minor muzzle wear. The grips are also excellent with a few minor nicks (on right panel) in the overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The holster is very good with some minor handling marks and flex wear, with a few minor gouges.
