The minty ratio of some guns are higher than others. There are quite a few Mauser 1930 C96s and byf Lugers in nice shape, for example. I would believe some of them were captured in unissued condition, no holster, holster of super nice Luger were probably an add-on later. Very nice instances of relatively common variation is not cheap, realized price of $4K, $5K are commonly seen in auction. This AA item caused attention due to it went unusual high.
