9/9/20 - This is a "Black Widow" Mauser Luger P.08 issued to the Nazi military in 1942. The chamber is dated 1942, and the toggle has the "byf" Mauser factory code. The right side of the slide has the proper "Eagle 135" Nazi military acceptance proofs. The gun is all matching and functions well. It has retained about 92-93% of its original finish. There is wear around the muzzle, on the side plate, and high edges of the frame. There is a small area of wear on the barrel and spotty discoloration on the side plate and left side of the frame. There are also a few very small surface scratches on the left side of the frame. Very minor pin-pricking on the straps. Very minor thinning on the front strap. There is some minor wear at the base of the back strap. There are two very small areas of freckling on the high edge of the right side of the frame. The gun comes with excellent original grips and one original black widow magazine. The bore has great rifling, but there are areas of light pin-pricking throughout.
