Hello,
I've got a Mauser HSc that my Dad brought back from the war and I would like to find some information for it.
The Mauser is in very good condition. The last gun shop owner to see it said 90-95%, that was a long time ago and it's in the same condition. All original with matching numbers and no import marks.
At the time the gunsmith saw it he looked up the serial number and said it was rare, I don't recall why, someone told me Swill Contract. I was wondering if someone here could give me more information, a possible value on it and what Swiss Contract may be and why that would make it rare.
I'm not an expert so my wording may be off.
The marking on the pistol are:
Eagle over N right side of trigger guard
Eagle over L left side of trigger guard
Left side of slide, Mauser-Werke A.G. Oberndorf a N Mod.HSc Kal. 7.65mm
Ser#844208 on front of grip.
It hasn't been fired in 40 years that I know of and looks like it hasn't been fired too much before that.
Any information would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks
