My dad bought one in the 50s and it was the most prominent gun in the gun rack growing up. Serial #6969, King of Prussia stamped, made it’s way to South America then to Oakland, CA where my dad wound up with it. I eventually sold it to a Mauser collector. It had a visually perfect bore, very nice wood, and was in the white with no rust. I still have the full box of paper patched German ammo for it, though it’s flat point with the box marked 71/84 for the repeater version of the gun.
