All serials numbers seem to match, it has no "stocklug"...and the grips are wood...as they are worn down....very used.....also it does not have a "grip" saftey...as the grip is smooth when its in your hand....

I would say that blueing is about 65%....the mag has a different serial number....and I did not see any import marks under the barrel....I am sure the barrel is worn..

the pawn shop told me that this pistol and several others...

were from a collector, who came in one day back in April and wanted to sell off his stock....and the 1913 luger and a C96 Mauser broomhandle pistol, is all that is left....he told the pawn shop that he had had both pistols for 20 years.....

But...what caught my eyes,was how good looking both pistols were....as I collect M-1 carbines, they appeared in "very fine shape".....and thats what caught by eye...
