Description

In 98% very bright condition, we have a very early 1910 production Steyr Model 1909 Pistol in 7.65mm (.32 auto).  This pistol was used by the Police Service of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, probably in Austria, and most likely stayed in service in the inter-world war period. It is marked P.A. 88 and the magazine is matching numbered to the pistol in the Police style.   Most of these pistols were later upgraded and rebuilt into 1908/34 Pistols and re-ussued to the Nazi era Austrian Police.  Finding one in this top original condition is quite a notable event for serious collectors.
