Description:

Dated 1938 on the chamber, with the "S/42" code on the toggle.

Matching numbers, with checkered hardwood grips and blue magazine with aluminum base.

Excellent, with 97% plus of the original blue finish, showing light wear along the high edges, a small amount of brown patina, and mild handling marks. A few barely noticeable spots of mild pitting are present on the high spot of the side plate. Grips are excellent, with sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
