9/24/19 - This is an honest example of an all matching and original Mauser P.38 from October of 1943. The bluing rates at 85-90% with thinning in several areas but the majority of finish loss on the barrel and top plate. Minty bore and proper mechanics, including de-cocker, so this one could be a good candidate for a shooter. Excellent reddish grips. Mauser magazine.
