Description:
WORLD WAR 2 German MAUSER s/42 Code “1936” Date Luger P.08 Pistol WWII  C&R

THIRD REICH German 9mm Semi-Automatic w/HOLSTER & Chest

Here we present a C&R Cased German s/42 Code 1936 Date Mauser P.08 Luger, made in 1936.  Manufactured by Mauser in 1936, using a combination "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. Based on Hugo Borchardt’s novel design of a semi-automatic pistol, the “Luger” pistol was designed by Georg Luger, the man tasked with taking an awkward, cumbersome and expensive pistol and making it into one of the world’s most iconic firearms of all time. The Model P.08 was adopted by Germany and was used through both WWI and WWII.

This piece is “1936” dated on the barrel extension 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 overall condition is good. Refinished in nickel. The numbers that remain visible match. The action is excellent. The bore is in good condition with strong rifling. The grips are solid (wooden backing with faux black mother of pearl laminate on top). The magazine is likewise nickel plated and has Third Reich markings. No import markings. The holster is in good condition. It shows the belt loops have been modified as typical when captured by US GIs. It has a date of 1936 and an origin marking of Stuttgart. The chest type case has been fitted for the gun at the bottom and it remains in nice shape overall.

This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.

Caliber: 9x19mm Luger (Parabellum)
