Description
3/6/23 – This is a very nice example of a scarce Mauser Model 1914 pistol that is Imperial marked and has a scarce “Prussian Eagle” trigger guard marking. This is a variation 3 example, described on pg. 257 of Jan Still’s “Central Powers Pistols” book. This particular example is all matching and has retained about 95% of its original finish. The majority of the bluing loss is on the front strap (where there is also some light spotty oxidation), but there is minor high edge wear in general, and an area of minor pitting on the left side of the slide. Fitted with a very nice period-correct wood grip and comes with one proper magazine that belongs with a later gun. The bore has good rifling with tiny pitting throughout.
