Check this beautifully engraved Astra 600/43.

This pistol was one of the 10.350 pieces that this spanish factory send to the occupied France between april and July of 1944. Seems that is a presentation issue for some waffen SS commander.

All right funny boy. Aniway the look of the pistol is terrific, beside the sinister looking swastica in the grip.

That is the Ugliest god forsaken pea shooter I have ever seen, Its supposed to be a weapon, a weapon meant for killing, not a peice of alluminum to carve beatiful art work on.

No this is a Cool as Hell Side Arm,

Like that M95. Looks awesome and would seem like a good weapon to kill someone with.

I know. A Rifle is a soldier's best friend. But his little buddy is also a pistol.

While absolutely being the best sniper-rifle of WW2, the K98k is also arguably the best bolt action rifle of the war: (Here you can see some of the different sniper versions of the K98k, fitted with 4x to 6x scopes)

Well I can definitely understand you, as the Lee Enfield is a great rifle, one of my personal favorites along with the K98k.
