Description:

Fixed sights, with the "1918" date on the chamber and "DWM" on the breechblock. Three "Crown/Letter" proofs are present on the right side of the extension, with Imperial Eagle firing proofs on the extension, barrel and breechblock. The small parts are straw finished, with niter blue pins and springs and a set of checkered grips. Numbers match overall, including on the two nickel finished wood base magazines, one appropriately stamped with a "+". Includes a "1917" dated brown leather holster and an unmarked blued takedown tool.

Rating Definition:

Very fine overall with 85% plus of the original blue finish, showing bright edge wear, a few areas of gray and brown patina, minor spotting and light handling marks. The frame is scuffed around the takedown lever, with the lever and the takedown tool visibly bent. 70% original straw finish remains and is bright overall, with bare metal visible on the takedown lever, and the grips show some dents, dark spots and verdigris. The holster is very good with some replaced small components, a few areas of loose stitching and scattered scuffs and cracks. Mechanically excellent.
