Hi! First post here from Clark in Nashville. Sorry if this is wrong forum - I'm still figuring them out.
This is a 1938 S/42 with a 6" barrel. Please see the following picture provided by the owner whom I am considering acquiring from.
The serial # on the receiver is X'd out and the correct matching one above it. Also, I believe the "U" with the crown above it is a Oberndorf Commercial Proof or VOPO proof , but I cannot identify the one above it. Under the X's is that a Suhl Eagle? I'm waiting for barrel markings. Aaargh.
Any insight on the X'd out serial or the proofs? Is this one junk or valuable?
Thanks for your time and comments!
