This is an late model(1939 and later) with large trigger guard, to allow wearing gloves. Introduced in 1925-26 as a less costly variety of the 4th year and with little change remained in production throughout the war. Note minor variations in the charging knob. The example marked "00" indicates non-standard parts, and is actually a very rare prototype. |
