HANDGUNS

 

AUSTRIAN Model 1912 "Steyr-Hahn" semiautomatic pistol #296g (9mm Parabellum), mfg, in 1914 with 1915-dated (mismatched) slide.  Nazi Police conversion into 9mm Parabellum (evidenced by "08" stamped on left side of slide), all mismatched parts, with "eagle over N" stamped on left side of frame and "eagle holding swastika" with faint "L" to right of it stamped on right side of frame. Gun has been polished and reblued and retains 100% bluing (though some of the lettering is subsequently blurry). Barrel is excellent, with the best bore I have seen on this type of weapon. Not import-marked. Quite rarely offered.  PHOTO . . . $325.  C&R   

MAUSER Model 1910 semiautomatic pistol #278868 (.25 ACP) mfg. between the Wars. Near excellent with a perfect bore and smooth functioning.  All-matching numbers, some holster-wear to slide but original finish with 95% or better remaining blue and much fire-blue on trigger and nose-piece, sharp Mauser banner. Pre-1968 import-marked with small GERMANY stamped on right side of frame.  INCLUDES brown-leather holster.  PHOTO . . . $250.  C&R   SOLD

MAUSER Model 1914 semiautomatic pistol #24106 (.32 ACP) mfg. before WWI, with WWI military proof-mark in front of rear-sight. Near excellent with a perfect bore and smooth functioning.  All-matching numbers, some small spots of corrosion where "holstered wet" on left side of slide, otherwise original finish with 95% or better remaining blue and much gorgeous fire-blue on trigger and extractor. Not import-marked.  PHOTO . . . $250.  C&R   SOLD

CZECH Model CZ-24 semiautomatic pistol #166360 (.380 ACP) mfg. in 1937. Near excellent with a perfect bore and very smooth functioning (wow, what a trigger...).  All-matching numbers (except magazine), some holster-wear to slide but easily 95% remaining blue.  Has small chip at bottom of grip on right side (very common with these), magazine looks a little bent but functions as intended. Not import-marked.  PHOTO . . . $250.  C&R   SOLD

CZECH Model CZ-27 semiautomatic pistol #150588 (.32 ACP) mfg. during WWII under Nazi occupation, WaA76 stamped on top of slide and right side of frame.    Excellent condition with a perfect bore. All-matching numbers, some minor holster-wear to slide but easily 98% remaining high-polish blue finish with nearly full "straw" on the heat-treated (unblued) parts.  Has small chips at bottom of grip and loop of magazine-catch is broken-off but functions just fine as-is. Small patch of corrosion on left side of frame by serial-number. Not import-marked.  PHOTO . . . $225.  C&R     SOLD

EGYPT Model 1951E semiautomatic pistol #EO5072 (9mm Parabellum), Egyptian contract, mfg. by Beretta in 1955. Has some external wear from holster-carry, but still retains 80% bluing and has a gorgeous, mirror-bright and very strong bore. 8-round mag has finger-rest and early-style mag-release is on bottom of butt.  The Egyptian contract Berettas are quite scarce and can be distinguished by the E-prefix to the serial number as well as the circular crest on the slide.  They are specifically named on the ATF C&R list.  PHOTO . . . $325.  C&R   

JORDAN "MiniMax 9" by Llama semiautomatic pistol (9mm Parabellum), NEW, UNFIRED IN ORIGINAL BOX with two matching-numbered magazines.  This is a Colt Commander-style pistol with grip-safety, 3-dot sights, soft-rubber grips and holds 8+1 rounds of 9mm ammo. The Royal Jordanian crown is stamped on both sides of the slide near the hammer.  Comes with manual and hard-case.  PHOTO . . . $250.   not C&R   

POLISH Model P-35 "Vis" semiautomatic pistol #H2848 (9mm Parabellum), Nazi Type II (no stock-slot, three levers). WaA77 stamps on slide and frame. All-matching numbers, with a excellent bore.  Was a WWII bringback that has been polished and reblued (nicely done) with 100% remaining bluing. Grips are very sharp, mag is decent. Not import-marked  PHOTO . . . $375.  C&R   SOLD

SPANISH Model 600/43 semiautomatic pistol #57389 (9mm Parabellum), mfg. by Astra in 1945.  Excellent, all-matching numbers with at least 96% original bluing and a gorgeous, mirror-bright and very strong bore. 8+1 round mag, with nearly pristine checkered-walnut grips. A really nice example.  PHOTO . . . $375.  C&R      SOLD

STAR Model B semiautomatic pistol (9mm Parabellum) mfg. in 1943Nazi-proofed with WaA251 on right side of grip (see photo). This is a large Colt-style handgun without grip-safety that likely were diverted from the German Army to Bulgaria in 1944 after Europe had been invaded by the Allied powers.  All have been arsenal-refinished and have 100% bluing, all-matching numbers (except magazine), great mirror-bores and original checkered walnut grips.  These are terrific shooters )as many of our satisfied customers can attest) but we have never had any with WaffenAmpts before.  PHOTOS . . . $275.   C&R   
 Note: we have some STAR Model B pistols still available from this time-period without WaffenAmpts @ $225.

COLT commercial Mark IV, Series 70 semiautomatic pistol #90706G70 (.45 ACP) mfg. early 1979 with blued finish. NEW, UNFIRED IN ORIGINAL BOX with manual & one magazine (box a little tattered but intact).  These usually sell for over $1000 in this condition these days. PHOTO . . $750.   not C&R     SOLD

RIFLES

EGYPT Model "Hakim" semiautomatic rifle (8x57) mfg. by Maadi in 1965. Excellent, 98% original bluing with a gorgeous mirror-bore. Wood appears to have been heavily marred and recently refinished, but there is a thin horizontal crack caused by the top buttplate-screw that flows along both sides of the stock to the comb. . . $275.   C&R   SOLD

SPANISH Model FR-7 Mauser bolt-action rifle (7.62x51) mfg. by Oviedo in 1921. Excellent, with nearly 100% parkerized finish and a nice sharp mirror-bore. Bolt is matching receiver and wood is nearly mar-free.  The small tube under the muzzle (intended to look like the gas-tube on a semiauto gun) is missing and there is an incorrect screw at top of the barrel-band, else as good an example as I have ever seen of this type. PHOTO . . . $225.   C&R   SOLD
