This is a very nice all original German P38 pistol that was manufactured late in WWII at the Mauser Oberndorf Factory. Mechanically this pistol works great and is sure to be an excellent shooter. This pistol is star marked and was shipped to and used by the French Government after WWII. This pistol has a very discreet import mark on the bottom of the slide. It comes with the original box. The serial number on the box does not match the pistol, but the previous owner said he bought it from Interarms this way and was probably an importer mistake. If you’re looking for a nice late WWII SVW Code P38, this is an excellent choice for your collection.
