The third year of Mauser Luger production during the build-up to WWII, 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 nickel-finished replacement alloy base magazine. Minus the unnumbered grips and mixed magazine, numbers are matching overall.

Fine, with 70% of the original blue finish, showing bright wear on the high edges, a brown patina concentrated on the grip straps, and minor spotting and handling marks. 50% of the original straw colors remain. The grips are very good, with some dents and flat spots. Mechanically fine.
