I bought the pistol yesterday. All #'s match internally. The left grip panel has a small waffenampt stamping with the # 735. The right grip panel has a waffenampt stamp with the # 655 or 656 depending on how you hold it in the light. This panel is also stamped with a 42 near the waffenampt, and a larger M about a half inch under these. Any ideas from anyone?
I may not be calling the small stamp correctly "waffenampt" . I am still learning, and this is what I assume it is called.
The barrel has very nice, pronounced rifling. No pits.
The mag has a wood bottom and the #'s 7292 on it.
Otherwise, the pistol doesn't have a scratch, mar, nick, gash or any other unwanted feature. Only the fire blue on the trigger that can be seen on the pics above.
The holster rig is very nice and appears to have some age in spite of being a "repro".
Anything else I need to look at on this pistol and rig ?
I am proud of this purchase, and it will go nicely with the reblue 1914 30 Luger I have. Hey, a pair of DWM's.
Thanks everyone for helping Woody out.
