1939 42 Rig

I have the opportunity to buy a complete matching rig. I have looked at the gun and it appears all original. It has two matching mags, 39 holster and 655 tool. The gun is a double 655 proofed. It is in the 3100 s/n and "X" letter suffix block. The only thing that I have a question about is the extractor. It is the plum finish but does not have a s/n stamped on it. The gun looks right and everything else matches.

I examined it closely with a manifying glass. The only marking is on the left side part that goes down in the bolt that reads "geladen". There is no evidence that it has ever been stamped with a s/n. The wear is consistent with the rest of the bolt and plum colored. The gun matches completely, grips, pins, etc. It is in excellent plus condition with only a slight bit of wear on the barrel and side plate from going into the holster. The bore is mint. It also has that asterick on the barrel that has been so controversial.
