Description: WWII MAUSER s/42 Code 1936 Date GERMAN Luger P.08 Pistol 9mm C&R w/HOLSTER
THIRD REICH Sidearm with Rig & 2 Magazines
Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R German s/42 Code 1936 Date Mauser P.08 Luger with Holster, made in 1936 in Obendorf, Germany. Manufactured by Mauser in 1936, using a “S/42” code on top of the receiver ring. Introduced during the early years of the Third Reich Party’s dominance of Germany, the code system was intended to obscure the scale and speed of German re-armament.
This piece is “1936” dated on the barrel and has the Mauser company’s coded designation of “s/42”. Interestingly, since the terms of the Treaty of Versailles only allowed the German Simson & Company to produce any of the few small arms granted Germany after World War I, arms production was done secretly at Mauser, among others. The “S” stands for “Simson” to throw off suspicion, and “/42” was the rest of the code for the Mauser factory. Dates were left off of the barrel until about 1936 when Germany’s arms production and military activities started to be brought into the light. This example has the Droop Eagle/63 military proof.
The overall condition is fine. Original blue finish. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. Numbers match throughout with the exception of the magazines. Grips are not numbered. The holster is in fine condition.
