Gents (and/or Ladies),

Was at a dealer today on the outskirts of Houston and noted, "1920 Commercial, 9mm", 4" barrel. Examined same, a DMW, with 1920 on frame top (yep, am FNG here, hence these pesky questions) and noted that "Germany" appears on side of frame, immediately below toggle lever. Number on front of frame matches with last two on underside of sideplate, toggle release lever and other locations. No markings on barrel, had "sling swivel" and stock attachment. Condition was about 90% but appeared to me to be an old reblue. Almost no straw on those parts that would be so. Toggle and action appeared to be very crisp. Wood bottom mag with no markings on base. Bore clean and shiny (possible refit?). Grips were slightly loose on left panel but checkering was relatively crisp, not sharp, but not worn either. NO proof marks on right side of frame or topend.

Dealer asking 1200.00.

Yeah or nay?

Any help, thoughts, suggestions VERY much appreciated.

Tim
