.32 ACP. 3.9" barrel length. SN: 95245. Blued metal finish with polished barrel mounting checkered black synthetic MAB logo grips. Simple blowback operated striker action autoloading pistol fed by detachable single stack magazines featuring drift adjustable rear notch and fixed front blade sights. Slide legend is shallow, likely due to worn dies in later WWII production and reads PISTOLET AUTOMATIQUE CAL 7.65/MAB BREVETE MODELE D. Right frame repeats the MAB maker mark beside an {Eagle/WaAD20} Waffenamt marking indicating German inspection and manufacture at Manufactures d'Armes de Bayonne. A further WWII German view marking is struck into the barrel. Serial numbers match on major parts. Magazine is blued and unmarked. {C&R}

Good. Bore is Very Bright with sharp rifling throughout. Metal finish shows some internal cycling wear, high edgewear, and scattered brown flecking. Thin blue with patina forming on gripstraps. Grips show handling wear, and some casting imperfections and bubbles. Trigger resets sluggishly, likely due to excessive friction with slightly warped grips, and old lubricant. Mechanically functional when cycled by hand.
