The right side of the chamber has a set of three "crown/ gothic letter" proofs next to the Imperial Eagle firing proof, which is repeated on the barrel and breechblock. Matching full serial numbers on the barrel, frame, and barrel extension, with matching partial numbers on the extractor, toggles, locking bar, side plate, trigger, sear, and safety components. Proper "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" marked upper safety position and extractor, with stock lug on the back strap and "88 R.1.7" on the front strap.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 95% of the original blue. A bright holster wear is showing along the high edges, along with scattered spotting. Grips are excellent, with some minor pressure dings. The fine leather shows mild scuffs and cracking. Some dings on the stock. Mechanically excellent.
