and description:

This Erma-Werke La.22, serial number 11977. This would be an early production example of the model, due to the relatively low serial number. It is mechanically complete, and has been successfully test-fired, and functions best with 40 gr. bullet with muzzle velocity available from standard velocity loads up to the 1235 fps of CCI Mini-Mags (best to avoid higher velocities). There is a bit of holster damage, as shown in the pics, including some freckling on the outermost sides of the upper frame, some thin finish on the typical front high points and edges, and an area of finish on the rear back strap that matches the shape of the holster's retention strap. If you're interested in an Erma .22, this one is one of their classic Luger look-alikes. This model has the same weight and overall dimensions as an original P.08. However the firing system is standard blow-back design, in addition to the trigger/sear system which differs greatly from that of the Parabelum pistol. These are quite accurate, too. This model, offered first in the early 60s, is constructed of cast Zamak, an alloy of Zinc, Aluminum, Magnesium, and Copper--except for the barrel's steel lining, the steel breech block, and many of the small, internal parts. This one has checkered walnut grips that look way better than those usually encountered. It is accompanied by two original factory 10-shot mags.
