Nazi Astra 400 & Holster...

**Len** · 09-22-2011 05:02 AM

I acquired this rig over the weekend at a gun show. The pistol in the the German icon

contract range of 1940-41. It's in nice original condition and came with an unusual canvas and leather holster and two mags. Here are some pics.

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.

Doesn't look long enuf to be a 400, looks more like a 600. What markings are on top of the slide? Are the mags ser nr'd?
No WaA so that one didn't get to the Germans regardless of where the ser nr puts it.
Interesting holster, to bad there are no markings on it.

Sorry Sarge, You're wrong on all your assertions. It's a 400 & they weren't waffenamted. Do some reading on the subject before you opine.

The holster is TT33 tokarev pattern. It fits a lot of pistols I have had Radom and 1911's in them. Gary

Sorry but it's too large for a Tokarev, it would swim in it. It might accomodate a Radom or a 1911(A1) but the mags are longer than the pouch.

Could it be for a Radom P35? Any thing stamped under the flap?
