A Chinese copy of a European semi-automatic pistol with features similar to those found on a Mauser or Mannlicher pistol . The frame and slide are marked with various Belgian style proof marks and the word "NATIONALE" as well as other false European style stampings. This is common on Chinese copies of European pistols of the early 20th century. It was thought that more discerning Chinese buyers would prefer a Belgian or German pistol, and these were meant to simulate the correct markings. Hammer fired and using a simple blowback action. With a fixed elevated blade front and a false tangent rear sight. Grips are horn with decorative bullseye carvings.

Fair. Incomplete with some traces of blue finish in protected areas. The balance has aged to a primarily gray patina with minor dings, edge wear, light spotting and some scattered pitting. Grips are good with some slight chipping and handling marks. Mechanically good.
