I examined it again today, it is serial 25056. 95% original blue, 75% original straw, all matching numbers, no proofs anywhere. I know there will be shouts of "Reblue", but there are no halos on the barrel or frame serial numbers. They are deeply stamped with raised edges on the barrel serial. The gun is not reblued. Safety is down for fire and is Gesichert marked. Bore is like new. Navy rear sight has only 30% original blue that is a different type of blue than the main gun. The gun is marked with a deep electo-etch on the front strap with the name "Beushausen". It is $3500 firm right now, too much in my view. Without the name on it, maybe. Comments welcome.
