Wooden shoulder stock has banner Mauser logo on left side. No maker’s markings observed on the leather. It is believed there are only 100 or so registered Schnellfeuer’s in the system. Mechanism operates smoothly when cycled by hand, selector switch rotates freely. This gun appears to be fully functional. Lower serial number located on front of lower under slide. Upper SN is “93550”. CONDITION: Very Fine. Bluing in the high 90s, high luster dark blue. Bore has crisp strong rifling with some darkness to the grooves. Overall finish and appearance is excellent. Wooden grips show some light dings and handling marks, but still in fine to very fine condition. Brown leather holster is in fine to very fine condition with some cracking but leather is still soft and pliable and stitching is still tight; serviceable. Wooden shoulder stock has attractive grain, some handling marks and there is a crack that runs approx. 5-1/2″ from the butt towards the front on the lower left side. There is also a tiny 1/8″ chip at the bottom hole where the handle of the gun protrudes. Stock is still attractive and serviceable. A skilled stock man could repair the crack. Inside the hinged rear of buttstock are some penciled numbers, but these are illegible. This example, especially with its proof marks make it a specimen which should be of high interest to the Nazi era pistol collector as well as the Class III enthusiast. 4-42047 JK37 (8,000-12,000)
