Part of the early post-Weimar German re-armament program, 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" (script S) code on the front toggle link, "S" proofs (mixed script and block) on multiple parts, "S][91" on the extension, "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 "8120/+/B][90". Aside from the magazine, numbers are matching overall, including the grips.

Fine, with 60% of the original blue finish, showing bright wear on the high edges, areas of brown and gray patina concentrated on the grip straps, minor spotting and light handling marks. A small amount of very light pitting is visible at the muzzle. The straw components remain 30% intact, having mostly turned a smooth gray, with some traces of bright straw in the protected areas. The grips are also fine, with some light dings. Mechanically excellent.
