Mauro,
Another serial number for your collection: 10.005284.
It's a 6" .30 cal, with the grip pin location in the frame. Along with the box and all the original goodies, it came with a nickle bodied wood bottom magazine with a Mauser Banner on the spine. The receiver has a purple tinge to it and the side plate is just plain purple. I have the same coloring on a 1939 Code 42 Luger and a 1942 Eagle "C' PPK. Something to do with either the hardening of the steel, or a rush job on the bluing. I'm not sure which is correct.
Lyn
