Black Widow Rig goes for 10k

The lack of halos would concern me! Anyone else? Opps ya right no halos on later Mauser's.

But the finish still concerns me a bit. Especially for the cash put out without a hands on inspection. I compared the photos with two BYF 41 Lugers I own. First the stampings seem deeper on mine. Especially the "41"on the top chamber. and the rear frame (near the hump) seems to smooth? On mine you can observe slight machine markings. Also almost no holster wear? But it survived with the original holster for 70 years?

Anyway maybe just being sceptically on my part. But for the price you should be.
