My 1940 42 or My Ugly Betty

[erndog105]

I picked this gun up from a vet in my retirement community. He says he got it in 1945 in Hamburg. But, his memory was not the best.
It is a complete mis-match but it shoots great. I will post my target sometime in the future when I get home. Ill do my best to show you how "ugly" it is. But I love her anyway. SN 5249n

Inside Grip, both grips have same number, also mis-match to gun.

Mag looks like a Simson, am I correct?

As you can see, not a lot of matching going on here.

My thanks to all.
