Fixed sights, with the slide marked with the "Crown/K" over the one line model marking on the left side along with Waffenamt proof "eagle/WaA84", "1945" on the reverse, checkered grips and magazine with lanyard ring base. The hammer and magazine catch are correctly unnumbered, with the other externally numbered components bearing matching numbers, mostly ".101". Provenance: The Dr. Robert Azar Collection

ConditionExcellent, retains 98% plus of the original phosphate blue finish with slight slide retraction marks and very slight high spot wear. The grips are also excellent with some minor dings and scratches, and some light wear. Mechanically fine.
