Manufactured from 1927 to 1941. Blade front and 1,000 meter tangent rear sights, with the "P in shell" proof on the right side of the barrel, chamber and frame, "helm/X" and "star/F" on the right side of the frame, and the three line Astra address and patent date on the side plate over a set of Chinese markings. A large ring hammer is present, with niter blue trigger, and a set of matching numbered 12-groove grips. A mismatched number (153) hardwood shoulder holster is included.

Excellent, with 97% plus of the original blue finish, showing some bright wear concentrated on the edges and high points, along with some minor scratches and handling marks. The grips are very fine, with minor pressure dents. The refinished stock is very good, with scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent.
