There seems to be a little confusion in SN numbers between 180,000 and 200,635 is it a model 30 or a Behorden Modell
|
The Model 30 aka model 1930 is the Behorden model. The other main Sauer models were the 1913 and the 38H. The "38H" comes from pistole 1938 hammerless. They use a decocker on the left side. A revolutionary feature for the time. I have always wanted a good Behorden. I have a 1913 and 2 38Hs. I am fond of WWI / WWII pistols and of 32 autos. These are both.
Given the condition of yours, I would say $300, give or take $50 - assuming it has the original mag that should be marked "S&S" intertwined somewhere. If the gun has some kind of special marking for police or something, that would help the value. If the mag is a replacement, deduct at least $50, since mags are not easy to find.
My 1913 is an Imperial proofed WWI issue gun.
Both of my 38Hs are police accepted Eagle / C guns. This one is SN 396XXX.
(it deserves a better pic). Sauer 38Hs were all made for the German war effort. Neat guns. They were the Sauer response to the PP/PPK of Walther.
This one I got last year came as a rig, with an original second mag and a holster. SN 440XXX. Also Eagle / C for police
