Blade front and fine-adjustable tangent rear sights, "1917" date on the chamber and "DWM" monogram on the toggle link. Three "crown/letter" proofs are present on the right side of the barrel extension with "Imperial Eagle" firing proofs on the extension, barrel and breechblock. Excluding the magazine, front sight and rear sight base, externally visible numbers match with proper "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" markings on the upper safety position and extractor respectively. With straw finished small parts, nickel finished magazine with wood base and checkered grips.

Fine as partially refinished (cold blue on left side of frame) with 80% of the faded original blue finish on the balance showing areas of brown patina on the sides of the frame and on the grip straps, bright edge wear, scattered scratches and light handling marks overall. Bright color remains on the straw components with mild spotting and dings. Grips are very fine with some pressure dents. Mechanically functions but is missing parts of the sear bar and will not dry fire.
