Fixed blade front and 500-meter tangent rear sights, with matching numbers and "WaA140" proofs on the barrel, slide, and frame, as well as a "WaA103" proof on the barrel and FN address/Browning patent markings on the slide. The grips are checkered hardwood, and the magazine is finished in blue with "WaA140" on the spine. Provenance: The Mel Raucher Collection

Very fine, with 80% of the original blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, edge wear and mild handling marks. The grips are fine, with some dings and flat spots. Mechanically excellent.
