Hello Guys,
I have recently acquired this pistol/holster.
As I know little about German stuff (I am passionately into SOVIET), and know even less about firearms, I was thinking and hoping that you guys, my valued associates, could enlighten me about what I have here.
It is not for sale in any case, as I feel it is a keeper, as it was part of a former US Army veteran's estate, and I have sworn to the family that I would hold it dearly in my collection until my demise...
...really - as it was given to me as a gift in return for assistance in the liquidation of the contents of the aforementioned deceased veteran's household contents.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The holster is dated 1918. Is it possible that this pistol was carried during WWII in it, even though the holster is an earlier type?
The action seems frozen by gummed up oil, and I can not seem to move it or remove the magazine for examination. Also, it seems that the screws that affix the plastic grips are missing.
I wonder why?
Is there a way, or any hope of freeing the action & the magazine, and find the proper screws to secure the grips?
Thanks in advance.
