RARE FACTORY ENGRAVED ASTRA MODEL 200 FIRECAT, NICE ORIGINAL GRIPS, 25 CALIBER AUTO (CAL 6.35 MM), HIGH CONDITION NICKEL, MANUFACTURED 1952
Description: ********SOLD******** Description: This is the Model 200 as produced by Astra 1920-1968. A similar 25 caliber model was made for Colt (Junior Colt Pocket Model 1958-1968), attesting to its high quality. Imported production was stopped by the 1968 Gun Control Act. This little pocket pistol has high quality hand-engraved scrolls with the surrounding field accented with a lightly-beaded surface. This was hand-engraved using a square graver and small hammer, not done by a cheap pantograph machine. The mechanism works properly in all functions, safety and clip release included. The clip is the original. Bore is excellent, with sharp rifling as if new. Over 98% of the original nickel remains. Most of these Astra’s have grips that are chipped or replaced. This one has nice original grips. This Astra S/N 682892 was produced in 1952, as proven by the Spanish Eibar Proof House year codes. The proof marks appear under the safety (seen when in S [Safe] position), and include an “X” for 1952. With this pistol being over 50 years old, in some cases I can ship directly to a C&R licensed individual. Terms: No International sales. Not being sold as a shooter, but as a functional collector’s Engraved Astra. If you want to shoot any older gun, first take it to a gunsmith and have it checked out.
