Sauer 38H...

[Pete Ebbink]

I was lucky enough to find this little Sauer 38H pistol rig.

Fascinated with this pistol for a few months, seeing a bunch on Jan Still's forum, and especially after getting a hold a Jim Cate's volume II about Sauer pistols.

The Sauer 38H is the first German double-action pistol (before the WaltherP-38) and has a unique de-cocking/cocking lever as well.

I will have this little gun home next week and will report more. Serial number is 301xxx...

I suspect she will be in my shooter collection...

I was hoping this one would be worn enough to send to Thor for a nice rust-blue restoration job...but I think I might have to find another one with a little more wear and tear...
