8/9/18 - This is an original "42" code 1939 Mauser Luger. The pistol is rated in about 70% condition, as there is bluing loss / thinning throughout the pistol. This is generally use wear, and gives the pistol an honest used look. There are some spots of discoloration and brown patina on the straps, side plate, and receiver. There is no rust or pitting though, and the action is smooth and fully functional. The bore is in similar condition to that of the pistol. Honest wear, signs of use, but the rifling is in tact and there doesn't appear to be significant rust or pitting. 7 out of 10 overall. The grips are not chipped or cracked, and the magazine is original but appears renumbered. All other parts are matching on the pistol. Guaranteed original.
