Description:

Considered by many to be one of the best semi-automatic target pistols of its time in terms of both fit and function. This pistol features an elevation adjustable front blade and windage adjustable rear notch sights, standard pre-1939 "crown/N" commercial proofs on the right side of the barrel, and the two-line "Stoeger Arms Corp. New York N.Y." retailer mark on the right side of the slide, forward of the serrations. The left side of the slide is marked with the Walther banner, two-line Zella Mehlis address and patent mark, and "Olympia-Pistole" over "Made in Germany". The full serial number, "5913O", is found on the left side of the frame spur and a partial number, "5913", is on the left rear of the slide behind the serrations. The underside of the frame is drilled, tapped, and fitted with counterweights. Fitted with a set of checkered right hand thumbrest grips numbered to the gun and a 10-round magazine with a walnut extension. The extension is numbered to a different gun.

Rating Definition:

Excellent with 97% plus original blue finish displaying some areas of light edge wear, small surface scratches, and general handling type marks. The grips are very fine with well-defined checkering, handling marks, and a few small dings. Mechanically excellent.
