    Picked up a nice little handgun today

    Vet bring back but unfortunately with no papers. Sauer and Sohn 38H in 32 caliber. With original soft holsster and two original S&S marked magazines. Eagle N proofs, matching numbers. Has that interesting cocking/deocking lever on the left hand side. Nicest WWII Germanicon pistol I have owned. I'll see about some pictures in the AM. Had to lay out 450 bux, but I feel it is worth it, especially considering how Nazi German pistols have go up in the last few years.

    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.

    Sounds like a good deal! I bought one a few years ago and really like it. In the current market the 38H is selling for upwards of $700+. Very cool gun congrats.

    That is a good price for any 38H, and a super one for a gun in good condition, especially if nicely blued.

    Bought a nice 38h about a year ago. Dealer claimed it was reblued although can't find any evidence of that. It is an early piece with a low serial number. Mostly issued to the Fallschirmjagers (Paratroops) during WW2. Nice pistol, none the less.
