Description:

Manufactured in 1937 for issue to the Luftwaffe. Fixed sights, the "1937" date on the chamber, the "Type C-3" Krieghoff logo on the front toggle link, and "GESICHERT" and "GELADEN" on the upper safety position and extractor. The pistol is stamped with a set of "stick wing" Luftwaffe proofs, eagle/L/2", "eagle", and "eagle/2", and the barrel is diameter marked "883". The pistol is fitted with a set of matching number straw finished small parts, niter blue pins and springs, checkered brown plastic grips with smooth borders and a bright drawn tube style magazine with "stick eagle/L/2" and "8622" on the alloy base.

Rating Definition:

Fine, with 70% refinished left top side of frame and dented side plate, the balance retaining of the blue finish, showing scattered light scratches and handling marks, the start of a brown patina on the grip straps, bright edges, and mild spotting. 40% of the original straw colors remain on the small parts. The grips are very fine, with some light dings on the crisp checkering. The Krieghoff proofed hold-open is unnumbered and needs adjustment; otherwise, the pistol is mechanically excellent.
