Manufactured in Norway, the Model 1914 is a close copy of the Browning patent Model 1911 pistol, the chief difference being in the slide catch, which has an elongated and 'dropped' profile, so as to be more easily reached with the thumb. Following the capture of Kongsberg by the Germans in 1940, 1914 pistols were made for the occupation forces. Fixed sights, with the left side of the slide marked "11.25 m/m AUT. PISTOL M/1914" and the serial number with a "Crown K" proof of the Kongsberg factory, as well as the "WaA84" Nazi inspector stamp, and the right side marked "1945". It has the correct Norwegian magazine with the lanyard loop on the base plate. Fitted with the correct wartime light wood double diamond checkered grips with dark stain.
