Description:

The top of the chamber is marked with the letter "G" indicating production in 1935 and the front toggle is marked "S/42". The right side of the barrel extension has the early "boxed B/90 and S/91" German Army acceptance proofs next to the single droop winged eagle firing proof. The firing proof is also marked on the left side of the toggle and right barrel side, with an additional "boxed B/90" on the left side of barrel. It has the military style numbering on all the parts and has checkered walnut grips with a single original matching magazine. The magazine has the tin plated body with an aluminum base that is marked "3475/a/boxed B90".

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 98% of the original blue finish with wear on the edges and high spots overall. There are several areas of very minor light rust starting to form on the grip straps, frame rails and trigger guard. The walnut grips are in excellent condition with only minor handling marks, nice sharp checkering on both sides with no cracks or damage. As noted this pistol has all matching numbers to include the magazine.
