K-Date on Auction....

The front end of the pistol doesn't look that bad to me. But it's a picture. The scriptic S on the left side doesn't bother me very much. I have seen these unusual Scriptic S's where Gothic S's should be. The Polishing on the rear receiver doesn't look very good. But after all it's a picture and we really cannot tell what reality might be. Keep in mind Mauser was really not up to speed when they started building these pistols. Early parts on late guns, changes in acceptance marks, etc. I have eight of these and they don't follow the guidlines in the books. Even a restoration is worth some bucks these days. Opinion for what it's worth.
