This is an excellent example of a 1939 dated Mauser Banner Police Luger pistol rig with the scarce "Eagle/F" Police proof. The top of the chamber area is stamped "1939" for the year of manufacture with the large Mauser Banner logo on the front toggle. The scarce early "Eagle F" Police stamp is located on the right side of the receiver with the commercial "Crown/U" proofmarks stamped on the left side of the receiver and the breechblock. The full serial number "561w" is stamped on the front of the frame with "561" stamped on the left side of the barrel extension and underside of the barrel. The last two digits of the serial number (61) are stamped on the various small parts. The pistol still retains the later salt blued finish with straw colored small parts and is fitted with checkered walnut grips. It has the unique "Eagle/6" Simson proof on the side plate which indicates this was an earlier manufactured part later used by the Mauser factory in manufacturing this early Police Luger. This proof has been noted several other police Lugers, all were dated 1939 and were stamped with only the "Eagle/F" Police proof. This Police Luger rig is complete with two Police magazines: one with an all blued magazine body, and the other one a nickel plate Haenel Schmeisser marked one with the aluminum bases stamped: "2/561/w" and "3/561". It is complete with light brown leather holster dated 1939 and marked on the back: "SCHAMBACH & Co./BERLIN/1939/Police Eagle proofmark" with an unmarked takedown tool.

Excellent with 95% of the original blue finish with finish loss on the edges and high spots with thinning on the grip straps. The grips are also in excellent condition with nice distinct checkering overall with minor handling marks, and light wear across the tops of the checkering on the right side. The holster is in very fine plus condition with clear sharp markings with a nice matching medium brown color overall with minimal handling marks. As noted this early Police Luger has matching numbers on the two included Police numbered magazines. A very nice looking early Police Luger Rig.
