11/19/21 - This is a very nice example of a hard to find 1940 Krieghoff. Most of the Krieghoff's you find are S Code, 1936 or 1937. After that, they become very scarce, with only about 1,000 of them made in 1940. This one is all original finish with all matching parts. Comes with a nice black widow magazine and correct Bakelite black grips. The finish covers about 90% of the gun but with some brown patina coming through the finish from age, so a little tough to rate. Small parts show excellent straw. The magazine release is fire-blued. Bore shows some freckling throughout, and some smoothing of the rifling. This 1940 Krieghoff was issued to the Luftwaffe during the war years and is a very nice example of a desirable collectors piece.
