WORLD WAR II mfg. Spanish ASTRA M600/43 Semi-Automatic 9mm MILITARY Pistol
1944 Manufactured MILITARY SIDEARM
Here we present a C&R Unceta S.A. Spanish Astra Model 600/43 Semi-Automatic Pistol chambered in 9x19mm and made circa 1944. When Germany acquired a land border with Spain after the French capitulation in 1940, they took advantage of the opportunity to purchase Spanish firearms and have them delivered across the French border to the town of Hendaye. A German inspection office was set up there for use with both Spanish arms and Unique pistols.
The result was the Astra 600/43, which was basically a Model 400 rechambered for 9x19mm. It was generally more in line with what the German military wanted. Germany ordered 41,500 of them, and production began. The first delivery was in May of 1944, and a total of 10,500 were delivered to Hendaye before Allied advances into France made further deliveries impossible. These 10,500 guns were inspected at Hendaye, given WaAD20 proof marks, and distributed into the German military system.
The overall condition is fine. Original finish. Excellent action. Shiny bright, strongly rifled bore. Sharp markings. Visible numbers match. Both grips are in fine shape with well-defined, crisp checkering.
