The third year of Mauser Luger production during the build-up for the Second World War, in 1936 the Germans discarded the letter code system and went back to just stamping the plain date on the chamber. Blade front and notch rear sights, "1936" on the chamber, "S/42" on the toggle link, "droop-wing eagle/63" proofs on the extension and barrel and "eagle" firing proofs on the barrel, extension and breechblock. Straw finished small parts, niter blue springs, pins and screws, checkered grips and a blue-finished magazine with alloy base. Including the magazine, external numbers are matching.

Very fine, with 80% of the original blue finish, showing a few dents on the rear of the frame, a mixed brown and gray patina concentrated on the barrel, bright edge wear and mild handling marks. 70% bright straw color is present on the small parts. The very fine grips are unnumbered with some light dents on the crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
