Hi! Ive been on a little buying spree lately, picked up a few more pistols from the war that ill be sharing. The first one is this Mauser 1934 KM marked "O" Baltic Fleet. The numbers on the magazine and front strap are mismatched. The spare is just an unmarked banner mag. Serial is 559645 crown/U on top back of slide and on front left of barrel mount. I couldn't find any KM stamps or markings on the holster. Any other information that anyone could share would be greatly appreciated, I've tried to determine the variation and build date but I'm still unsure. Thank you for any help in advance!

Another KM 1934 Mauser
Nice pistol you picked up. I have one that looks much like yours. My serial number is 566180, Ost Sea Fleet O. 4647, and came with an Ost Sea magazine numbered
O. 4631. The pistol and magazine are 16 numbers apart. These are neat little pistols. -

Thank you! i completely agree they are cool! I had a commercial 1940 model and traded it with cash to get this one! I wish my fleet numbers were closer like yours are , why are so many mismatched? Did they just grab whatever magazines were laying around or replacements after losing one?Comment

Yes, I think you have absolutely right! They weren’t collectibles back then
Nice and rare pistol you have anyway.Comment

I don't know if it would be better to start a new thread in the uniforms section but i'll try here first. I want to compete this rig, what would have been the appropriate belt this pistol and holster would have been worn on? Any help would be greatly appreciated!Comment
