Hi Leon,
I really appreciate your taking the time to share those photos. I had acquired a mint '42 E/L Mauser Banner police rig a couple of years ago... serial #y3110. The bore looks like it just came off the assembly line. All numbers match. The wooden grip panels exhibit sharp checkering, but are somewhat dark compared to yours. It came w/ two FXO mags, but they seem to have black bakelite bottoms & are not numbered. The holster is perfect, but the stitching is black. Was it common to dye the cotton? Any idea as to what this rig might be worth? I'm planning on getting a Sony Mavica MVP 4 megapixel digital cam soon & will post photos at that time.
Thanks again,
stymie
