Near excellent, bright, original factory salt blue with sharp edge wear and slight thinning of backstrap where in contact with holster flap as would be expected from a largely carried but seldom used police pistol. Comparable condition oil darkened grips with intact tips showing no repair. Magazines with slight age darkened bodies, most of the original bluing on their floorplates intact. EXC leather with staining in exposed areas, no suggestion of repair. Mirror bore. Correct manual mechanics. An attractive late WWII German Police Eagle L rig!
