In a crisp 97-98% condition, we have an Original Duralumin J.P Sauer Behorden Modell Pistol. This pistol is an extremely rare and historically significant milestone in the history of firearms production, the first regular albeit limited production handgun to be made with an aluminum alloy frame and slide. This pistol is as light as a feather; toy pistols weigh more…. Production was extremely limited; only a hundred or so mostly left in the bright aluminum finish with just a handful in the black anodized finish as this example is. Today only 24 are known to exist, and of these only 3 or 4 that have the anodized black finish. The Duralumin Sauer Behorden Modell is considered to be one of the rarest Sauer Pistols ever made and only the most advanced and prestigious collections will even have an example. This specimen was just discovered recently and it is in the known serial range and is a completely orthodox textbook example.
If you collect the real rarities this is will be a hugely important and ego boosting acquisition, and would make a lovely Christmas gift to ones self. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.
