Unusual Krieghoff Serial #194

Really an beautiful example of a Post-war produced HK.!!!

A couple of points...

You can read about these and dates of manufacture in this thread:

Second - no, these are not P-code commercials, but rather, your's is a more common post-war variation (well, none are actually "common"

)

Third - unfortunately, these were produced after the VE Day, so there is no chance it would have been taken from a dead soldier, but nonetheless - it is a Krieghoff!

Fourth - the "circle A" is noted on other post-war HKs (and P-codes/Series II) and is a rejection mark found on some HK commercial Lugers and post-war assembled Kriegs

Fifth - as a dual mag matched RIG, would probably fetch $6000+

Finally - you can find some more info about Post-wars Kriegs in this thread - which discusses another post-war variation: http://forum.lugerforum.com/showthre...&threadid=5361

VERY NICE!!!
