I think so. The bolt was renumbered.

There are many indicators leading viewers to believe this is a refurbished gun: C/C/U on this variation under blue is not right, grip panels do not look right either, better milling than average, etc.. all can be explained as German refurbishing. But GERMANY also under blue is weird, unless GERMANY was added before refurbishing... Plus this renumbered bolt.

It's already $2725. Mint original standard C96 with matching stock from Sturgess collection sold $10k in Julia. That's the roof. This one may still have room on gunbroker.com. We will check a week later.
