Description:

Blade front and tangent rear sights, graduated to 1,000 meters, with the top of the chamber marked "WAFFENFABRIK/MAUSER/OBERNDORF A/N", "Crown/Crown/U" proof on the left, and the serial number on the upper left side flats. Matching numbers are present on the hammer, housing and frame, with a small ring New Safety hammer and niter blue small parts. With a pair of 30-groove hardwood grips and a shoulder stock with matching numbered mounting iron.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, with 85% plus of the original blue finish, showing some light handling marks and spotting overall, and a few scratches on the underside of the barrel. An irregularity is present in the frame on the left rear side next to the grips, possibly a factory machining error. 70% of the original niter blue finish is present on the small parts, and is particularly vivid in the protected areas. Grips are very good, with some varnish loss and dings. Stock is fine, with a thin crack near the lid button, a longer crack extending from the grip cutout, a section of tape securing the lid latch hardware and mild scuffs overall. Mechanically excellent.
