Alanint was right. There are a few parts that dont match. mag floorplate, locking block, bolt, grips are repo. I dont think this is truly a 9mm. more likely a 7.63mm Mauser round. My 9mm snap caps swim in the mag well, but load and eject just fine when cycled manually. The people who owned prior to me according to there records it was bought in 1992 as a Red 9. They got took, still a nice pistol. I took it apart and found the sear wasnt connected fixed that real fast shes fully working. Not sure if im going to keep it, im not a fan of rare calibers. Maybe trade bait who knows.
