**SOLD** 1946 Danish Police Contract Husqvarna M40 Lahti chambered in 9mm Luger w/ Original Rig **SOLD**
Description: Here is an excellent overall condition Danish Police Contract Husqvarna Model 40 Rig. In 1946 the Danish Military and Police ordered and received some 13,000 M40 Lahti Pistols from the Husqvarna firm. The Danish guns all have the "D" serial number prefix (D for Danish), with 10,000 of these guns intended for the Danish Police falling between serial numbers D 5001 and D 16000. The rear of the frame on these guns was stamped with the Danish crown over the initials "H.V." which stands for Haerens Vapenarsenal (Army Arsenal). These Lahti M40's served the Danish police well for decades until being sold off as surplus. This example is serial number D8639 and was one of the 10,000 pistols used by the Danish Police. It is in excellent condition overall and shows a slight amount of handling wear with most being on the top of the slide and barrel. The bore is in beautiful condition with bright and sharp rifling and no signs of pitting or corrosion. The factory checkered bakelite grips are in excellent condition and are free from any cracks, chips, or repairs. This M40 comes as a "rig" with an original holster, 1 extra original magazine, an original cleaning rod, and an original tool. The "Crown H.V." stamped leather holster is in great overall condition and shows no signs of cracks or repairs, just honest wear. All of the controls work as they were designed to, and the pistol is 100% functional. These M40 Lahti's seem to be harder and harder to find each year with their values climbing higher and higher. If you have been looking for a nice all-original and complete example for your collection this piece would be a superb choice.
