Description:
Super rare Mauser M1906-08 experimental pistol, one of fewer than 100 made (highest recorded number known is 77), and the first Mauser to have a flap-locked mechanism.  SN 51. Cal. 9mm x 21 mm (DWM case 487B). This 2nd variation pistol has a 4" bbl with a banded front sight and a half round-half octagonal bbl whose chamber is hand inscribed “WAFFENFABRIK / MAUSER OBERNDORF A.N.” Major components are rust blued. Bolt is strawed while the extractor, safety, safety release button, trigger, magazine retention spring and grip screw are fire-blued. Disassembly shows all matching numbers except for the magazine whose body is numbered “142” and whose fire-blued base is numbered “72”.  Impeccable provenance with previous owners including Henk Visser and Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess. Exact gun illustrated in The Borchardt & Luger Automatic Pistols, Vol 1-3 book with 20-shot magazine. CONDITION: Superb professional restoration with deep chamber markings, flat planes, sharp edges.  Major parts with correct rust blue; enhanced fire blue on the small parts. Orig grip retaining much of its orig varnish. Slight blunting of checkering. Bright bore with sharp rifling. Perfect manual mechanics. One of the most unusual, recognizable and desirable pistols ever made by Mauser that could easily be the centerpiece of any early automatic pistol collection.
