In 98% mint crisp condition, we have an early war, 1940 production Cz27 Pistol still with the original early capture papers named to a crewman in a Tank destroyer regiment. This is the high polish variant, made to the highest quality, the grips are not chipped and the bore is mint. This is a great example of an early production Cz 27 with the very high grade fit and finish. This is a fairly common WW2 German issued pistol in uncommonly nice condition.
The Cz 27 was the most widely issued non German pocket pistols of WW2 and they are frequently encountered but rarely this nice. They are extremely well made and overbuilt. This design was developed by Joseph Nickel,the gentlemen who designed the M1914 Mauser and it is a vast improvement over that design. finding this pistol with well documented capture papers is a huge deal these days; we rarely are able to obtain artifacts such as this that still retain such great documentation.
