Fantastic complete rig. However, it belonged to the Landjägerei (rural constablulary) of the Prussian administrative district of Potsdam. It was issued to them in 1929. The pistol was one of those originally manufactured for the Rif revolutionaries in Morocco but never delivered because of political concerns. An outstanding acquisition.
