Blade front and 500-meter tangent rear sights, with the three-line address on the top chamber flat, "crown/crown/U" on the chamber and bolt, "crown/gothic letter" on the right side of the chamber and the two-line address on the right side of the frame. External numbers are matching overall with a New Safety hammer, slotted back strap, and matching numbered 32-groove grips with a branded and red-filled "9" on each panel. Included with the pistol is a shoulder stock (attaching iron numbered "361") with imperial proof on left side, and Hamm maker marked, "1916" dated (on top strap) leather carrier rig.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 75% plus original blue finish with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina and a few scattered patches of very light pitting. The grips are also very good with some minor dings mainly towards the butts and traces of original red paint in the "9" brands. Mechanically excellent. The stock is fine with some minor dings and scratches scattered throughout. The leather carrier rig is also fine with moderate wear, some loose stitching, and mild age related cracking.
