Romanian Steyr Hahn

PANZERSOLDAT · 08-04-2003, 09:35 PM

I have what I believe to be a Romanian Steyr Hahn in 9mm Steyr with original holster. Is anyone familiar with Romanian leather or pistols? This pistol came into my collection with WWII capture papers so it was probably a vet of both wars any info appreciated. I will attempt to post two photos.
The holster fits perfectly but has no markings and does not have the Austrian style clip pouch. My picture posting attempt has failed. I am apparently doing something wrong when I tried to post two. Do I need to list file names on this post for the photos? How do I fix it?

{edit by EBT, ensure you upload each picture, then place the picture just as you did the first one. You can have up to eight pictures (if memory serves me correct) in one posting.}

Tank Soldier, If Romanian issue, it should have the Romanian crest on the left side of the slide. Most of these that I've seen were badly polished and reblued. I parted out a few of these, if anyone needs parts. TH

Mine is in very good condition with exception of chip on left grip panel. The left side has Romanian Crest over Md.1912. also above grip on left is Steyr 1914, SN is 415xc. If you have a set of grips to sell contact me.

FWIW, the Roumanian contract was for the police, not the military. Your pistol appears to be correct.
