Description:

Dated 1937 on the chamber, with the "S/ 42" code on the toggle. "Droop wing eagle/ 63" proofs on the extension and barrel, with eagle firing proofs on the extension, barrel and breechblock. Bottom of the barrel marked "8,82", and "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" on the upper safety area and extractor, respectively. Matching visible numbers, fixed sights, stock lug, blue unnumbered magazine marked "122" over eagle/37 proof on the lower left side and fitted with checkered walnut grips.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The pistol retains 90% of the faded original blue finish with muzzle and high edge wear, with thinning and some light spotting on the grip straps. 30% of the original straw color remains on the small components. The grips are fine with some minor dings and bruises on the crisp checkering. With the exception of the toggle proofmark, the markings are crisp and clear. Mechanically excellent.
