Norwegian M1914

**highpower3006** · 01-02-2020 06:19 PM

Here is another pistol that has eluded me for years. Either they were priced higher than I was willing to pay or one would turn up when I was broke. The stars finally aligned for me a few weeks ago and I was able to trade into this guy.

Norway icon

was one of only three countries that produced the M1911 pistol under license from Colt

Matching numbers throughout and it still has it's original lanyard loop magazine:

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

My latest one is a late 1945 with no Waffenamt Markings

Birch grips? One assumes the Germans left most of these scattered over Europe, or did they mostly stay with the occupation forces?

**highpower3006** · 03-07-2020 08:49 PM

It's had to say. I know that mine has what looks like a Finnish icon

"SA" stamp on the frame, but no one has really said if any went to Finland. Yes the grips are a very light colored wood and painted black.
