Hello All, This neat little Sauer is another one my locally acquired items, I hope that perhaps someone may have a little data regarding it's origin and or issue. It was found about five years ago, just waiting for me in a local gun dealers display case. It was accompanied by a brown leather holster that appears to fit somewhat correctly, but may actually be for a Walther PPK. ( The holster is a medium to light color brown leather, 3 pc "breakaway" style, DRGM & AKAH - w/ logo marked under it's top flap ) The Sauer is in 7.65mm, serial # 219623, and is of the Dutch contract variety. It's factory marked on top left slide, "JOH. MUNTS - AMSTERDAM", and has brown marbled grips & Dutch safety mkgs ) I've noted one or two similar Dutch contract Sauer M-1930's in the past, and Jan's Vol. 5 also refers to both the Dutch Army & Navy variants, but I don't recall a variant with markings exactly like mine. Has anyone ever encountered a similar model ? Perhaps this particular contract was intended for commercial, and or law enforcement sales within Holland ? I estimate the mfg. date of my example as circa 1938 or '39, is that correct ? I'm preparing to purchase the two volume set of Cate's "Sauer Pistols", as I've been wanting it ever since it's publication a few years ago. From what I've been told, it should prove to be a worthwhile addition to my collector's library. I also have another Sauer that I'd like to document, a very, very late production Model 38h in 7.65mm. (Serial # 511391, complete with it's extremely crude black pigskin laminate flap holster. The pistol appears to be in mint, perhaps unfired condition.) It's totally unproofed & unmarked, other than it's serial #. As this posting is already too long, perhaps I should post the Sauer 38h query on it's own. THANKS Guys, I eagerly look forward to any & all replies. Best regards, Dom Pastore Jr.
