Synopsis:

VG + original finish with minimal sharp edge wear, principally around the right side of barrel and usual high point holster wear. Comparable condition grips with sharply molded checkering, no discernable losses. Near excellent magazines: primary magazine as issued. Secondary magazine has a blued follower (reflecting early production as correct for a red grip pistol) and a replacement brown plug. Mirror bore. Perfect manual mechanics with each magazine. Holster and strap have VG+ leather with intact stitching. One of the most desirable of the M1929 Bern Lugers, especially with a correct magazine and matching-dated holster/strap!
