Cool, thanks for the info, are there any records that would show where that regiment was and when?

Here are a couple of photos of it.

I came across what I think is a German dog tag today at a yard sale. One side is marked
Waffen SS A
the other side is marked

That seem to be the consensus, but holding it in hand it is just so sharp and no smoothing of the machine marks. I was able to find this one with some google searching, It looks almost identical and...

All of that area is parked.

thank you, I think that is what I have, however mine has checkering on the forearm of the stock as well as the pistol grip. Maybe just a difference in time of manufacture.

So I guess $2500 would be about the norm for a 95 to 97 percent 1942 navy. I will try to post pictures of mine anyway when I get back in town.

Thank you Mr. Holbrook and thank you for your service , those are some nice looking pistols. Mine is #793882 I thought $2000 was what a nice 1942 would sell for not a navy, or did you just do your...

I will try to take a picture and post, the pistol is all correct.
