Sig m49 (P210 DK)
Christmas gift to myself, an original numbers matching Danish issued P210, m49 in their nomenclature. Delivered 1951 maybe.
  Back then (1995 I think) 4 grades were offered by Hämmerli, who bought them back from Denmark and sold them in the civilian market. Grade A was 1st series delivered to HTK (Haerens Tekniske Korps / army technical corps) with high polish and wooden grips in original condition

The wood has a very nice grain on those grips. But did you change them before shooting? In the target pictures, the gun seems to have different wood.

You sir have a good eye. I changed the grips after shooting the gun, the original ones are someone dirty and I had a nicer pair for the beauty shots. I’ll clean the originals ones. |

Some of the Danes made it to America back when, and was fortunate to get one. Actually like to shoot the newer 210A more, but jusat a personal preference.

Prachtig. Wunderschon. Maybe you were near St. Gallen in October?
