Manufactured without maker's marks or serial numbers, this is an excellent example of a shoulder stock for a DWM Borchardt Pistol. Much as the Borchardt was a predecessor for the more famous Luger pistol, the Borchardt's stock was the forerunner for the later Luger Artillery/Navy stock arrangement, with a thin but rugged board serving as both the stock and a mounting point for a leather holster, in contrast to the larger and more fragile Mauser arrangement. The mounting hardware is blued steel, with a ribbed thumbscrew for tightening the stock onto the lug, and a hardwood cheekpiece is mounted to the left side. The right side is contoured to accommodate the holstered pistol, and is fitted with a steel mounting bracket for the included shoulder strap.

Excellent, showing 90% plus original blue, some light dings and handling marks on the very fine original wood. The leather is good and shows minor wear and cracking. This is one of those accessories that you wish you would have purchased, because they don’t come up very often!
