Trigger bow has subinspector marks "F" on the left side and the number "37" on the right side. Grips appear to be 100% correct. Magazine and bbl however are replacements that more than likely got mixed up during a cleaning being that they are of the same period and like condition. PROVENANCE: Stern Collection. CONDITION: Pistol retains 80-85% of the orig deep rich blue with which it was produced.ááMajor loss of finish is on the front and rear grip straps.ááThis is a very pleasing UMC that would be an asset to any vintage pistol collection.ááMechanics are excellent and the bore is very good, showing just a little bit of corrosion at the chamber end.ááAll in all a very nice UMC. 4-34142 BK101 (3,500-5,000)"
