I don't have any opinion than I stated on Jan Still's board, but be advised, 2M/M equals TWO matching magazines.

Welcome!

You don't show the front of the lower frame serial number nor the bases of the two magazines. Although they may be "correct" for the gun, they are only matching if the numbers, (suffix in other cases) an proofs are all consistent. Also, the condition of the holster is worrysome as opposed to the balance of the pistol.

I can't make out detail on the toggle train retention axle. Was it renumbered?

Garandy · 06-03-2012, 11:22 PM

It [toggle pin] wasnt renumbered, the mags are M/M, and its possible the holster was added, as its not mentioned in the capture paper text..

Lower frame SN is 273..
Pin has something under it, but its still numbered 73..font the same?

Well it certainly hasn't seen much action.
I'm not concerned with the well used holster as I suspect that new guns were not necessarily issued with new holsters, so their level of wear need not be similar.
While someone may find fault with it, I'd be glad to have it in my safe...

Fonts? Note the pins 3 is flat headed, where the rest are rounded..there was something under it..being hardened steel, is it supposed to be different, or not Mauserwerke's manufacture?

The axle pin looks like a restamp to me..the three is much larger than the 7 and there is clearly another number under the 7 and perhaps as well under the 3. Axle pin stamps should be crisp and clear while this whole area looks very "busy" on your pin.

This is not a huge deal as you may find another, correct one.
