Nice pistola! What does the area under safety lever look like? It should have a lightly recessed outline of the lever and polished bright metal. Does the right side grip look the same on the inside (color and walnut figure) as the left (and, are they stamped with the last two digits and large letter C)? I recently had a very similar pistol (but it wasn't all matching) restored by Ted to it's factory original condition (actually better than new since his hand work is more attentive than some factory worker back at the turn of the century). I think that AEs are some, if not the best of all the Lugers. That is an exceptionally fine specimen you have captured. If one has not felt the joy of a grip safety in the web of your right hand they have truly missed one of the aspects of Lugers (just my opinion). Thanks for sharing the pictures.
