Originally manufactured in "First Issue" configuration, like many German Navy Luger pistols this example was reconfigured, with the safety altered. The lower safety position has been milled out, and a new "Gesichert" added to the upper position. Blade front and two-position notch rear sights, undated chamber, with a set of "crown" firing proofs on the barrel, extension and breechblock, two "crown/M" stamps on the left side of the receiver and one on the underside of the barrel. The rear grip strap is marked "M.A./229" above the stock lug. "GELADEN" is marked on the extractor, with straw finished small parts, a pair of checkered grips, and a nickel finished magazine with wood base. Includes black leather navy pattern holster and period modified bore rod with handmade wood handle.

Fine with 60% of the faded arsenal blue finish remaining, areas of high point and edge wear, visible surface spotting throughout, tool marks on the grip screws, and 30% of the straw colors on the small parts. The front sight blade is broken. The grips are good with small bruises and dings overall, and moderately worn checkering. The wooden magazine base is damaged with some small chips on the right, and most of the protrusion absent on the left. Holster is good as altered with two large cuts made in the back (likely makeshift belt loops), tight stitching, original loops absent, exterior scuffs, and generally solid construction.
