Excellent World War II Mauser "byf" Code 42 Production Black Widow P.08 Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol Rig

This is a late WWII "byf" Mauser code Luger P.08 pistol with the "42" dated chamber area. The term "Black Widow" was given to these type of Luger pistols by GI's because of their darker color finish and black plastic grips. The right side of the barrel extension has the standard Eagle/135 acceptance proofs along with the Eagle firing proof. The chamber is dated "42" and the front toggle is marked "byf". It has a standard safety and extractor markings of "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" respectively and the left side of the frame is stamped "P.08". The complete serial number (5963) is marked on the left barrel extension, and front of the frame (g) suffix on the frame also, and the partial serial number "63" on the small components. Dark salt blue finish, blue "fxo/eagle/37 and "P.08" marked magazine with a plastic base and fitted with black checkered plastic grips with the smooth border. Comes with a black leather flap holster marked in pen "???ZENSTOCK" on the inside of the flap, and "dla/42", eagle/swastika over "WaA195", and "P.08" on the back. Also comes with a takedown tool and extra identical magazine.

ConditionExcellent. The pistol retains 95% original blue finish with some muzzle and high edge wear and several small nicks present on the front of the trigger guard. The grips are also excellent with some minor handling marks and crisp checkering. The markings are clear. Mechanically excellent. The holster is good with some touch up and cracks on the magazine pouch, some minor scuffs and tight stitching.
