Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Produced in very limited quantities; while the 9mm Kurz round found an audience, many opted for the chambering in the larger Model PP instead of the more compact PPK, resulting in an estimated 25:1 ratio in terms of total production. Fixed sights, with 1930s "crown/N" proofs on the slide, chamber and muzzle, the traditional slide legend, and the proper hand-scribed matching three-digit number inside the slide. Fitted with a ring hammer, 60 degree safety, heel-mounted magazine catch, and a brown plastic wraparound grip. The included correct magazine is properly without a notch for a button catch, and fitted with a flat metal base. Includes a brown leather Albrecht Kind holster, configured to work as either a shoulder (strap not included) or belt holster.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, showing some light spotting, bright edge wear and mild handling marks. The grip is fine, with some scuffs and warping, and the fine holster shows some cracking and staining. The hold-open needs adjustment, otherwise mechanically fine.
