SOLD, FRENCH Mle 1935A NAZI ISSUED PISTOL, WaA251 WAFFENAMT, VERY CRISP!

IN 97% ORIGINAL SHARP CONDITION, WE HAVE A NICE FRENCH Mle 1935A PISTOL MADE UNDER NAZI OCCUPATION AND WAFFENAMTED WaA251, THIS PISTOL WAS ADOPTED BY THE FRENCH JUST PRIOR TO WW2 AND THEY WERE JUST GETTING DEPLOYMENT FULLY UNDERWAY WHEN WAR BROKE OUT IN 1939.  THEY ARE EXTREMELY WELL MADE AND WERE THE FIRST SUCCESSFUL CHARLES PETTER DESIGN, THEY CAN BE CONSIDERED TO BE THE FATHER OF THE SWISS SiG p210.    

THE PISTOL IS ALL MATCHING WITH AN EXCELLENT BORE. THE FINISH IS THE ORIGINAL CORRECT PHOSPHATE WITH A BLACK ENAMEL PAINT COATING. THESE PISTOLS USED A FRENCH LONG .32 CARTRIDGE WHICH WAS ALSO USED IN THE FRENCH SUB MACHINE GUNS OF THE PERIOD. THIS IS ALSO THE SAME CARTRIDGE THAT THE US WW1 PEDERSON DEVICE WAS CHAMBERED IN AS WELL. THIS ROUND IS SOMEWHAT MORE POWERFUL THAN THE .32 AUTO, BUT NOT AS LETHAL AS  9mm LUGER.  NEW AMMUNITION FOR THIS PISTOL IS AVAILABLE ON THE WEB FROM STEINEL.  WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE ASKING FOR ONE OF THESE SO IF YOU WANT IT PLEASE MOVE FAST ON IT.
