Except the nickel finished wood base magazine, external numbers match, with the proper "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" markings on the upper safety position and extractor respectively. Checkered walnut grip.

Rating Definition:

Very good as partially refinished (cold blue on grip straps), with 70% of the original blue finish on the balance, showing areas of brown patina, patches of gray on the grip straps, bright edge wear and scattered handling marks. The grips are fair, with dents and scuffs. Holster is fair, with dents, having been renumbered. Areas of brown patina are present on the magazine. Mechanically very good.
