Nice gun, ex Austrian Army.

When the Austrian Bundesheer was established in the 1950s, many French owned Mauser pistols were transferred to them.

Larry ---- I have a Mauser (svw) 45 P.38 with Nazi proof and acceptance stamps on the right side of the slide. It also has a very small star stamp just above the Nazi acceptance stamp. Does yours have the star ?
