MAUSER HSc

Issued in 1939 as the successor of the old Mauser 1914/34 series, the HSc was a very attractive (and eficient) pistol, with a highly modern design. Chambered mainly for 7,65mm, it was used by Army officers as well Kriegsmarine and Luftwaffe soldiers. It was the Walter Nowotny´s sidearm.

This was was made very late in war (probably one of the last one made) and has a parkerized (phosphate) finish, which gives it a "greenish"-look!

Also shown are the Iron Cross 2nd Class and the Panzer Assault Badge in Bronze.

Douglas.

It's almost like a piece of Art Deco! Very, very Thirties design. Very nice!

Erich,

Nice P38! I didn´t manage to see the maker´s code... what it it? cyq?

The Beholla is a very interesting pistol. Many officers carried it during WWI.

Not a bad choice, as a weapon of war, what it lacks in finesse it makes up for in spectacle!

I can just imagine him, sitting in the rocking chair on the porch, holding that on his lap, pointing it at random people for fun

The schrek also makes an effective eliminator for those pesky yapping dogs in the middle of the night
