Mauser byf 42 Portuguese Luger - M1943 9mm
Description: Mauser byf 42 Portuguese Luger - M1943 This rare handgun is a Mauser code ‘byf’ 42 date with a phosphate finish (black matt/parkerized finish) produced roughly 5,000, for the Portuguese Army. The M1943 contract was most likely not a conventional foreign government purchase through Mauser, rather it was more likely a transfer of guns in the first half of 42 byf m-block from the German Army to Portuguese Army. Portugal used (part of) these pistols during the guerilla wars in their former colonies of Angola and Mozambique; the hot and humid countries requiring a phosphate finish for extra protection from the rains and moisture. Therefore it was proofed according to German Army specifications. Variations exist as pistols were maintained with spare parts during the war period.
SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Manufacturer: Mauser Model: 1906 Serial Number: 3774m Condition: good Manufacture Date: 1942 |
