Part of the early German re-armament program under the recently-ascended Nazi Party, the "K" date Lugers were manufactured in 1934 in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. Fixed sights, with the "K" date on the chamber, "S/42" code on the front toggle link, and "S" proof stamps on a number of components, along with "B][90" stamps on the extension and barrel and "droop wing eagle" firing proofs on the barrel, extension and breechblock. Some small parts are straw finished, with niter blue pins and screws, and a bright finished alloy base magazine marked "9089/B][90". Numbers are matching overall, including the grips.

Fine, with 70% of the original blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, bright edge wear, mild spotting and handling marks. 50% of the original straw color is present on the small parts. The grips are also fine, with some dents and flat spots. Mechanically excellent.
