JP Sauer & Sohn M1919 (Variant 2)
Looking for Trade
I have what I think is a 1930's Sauer model 1919, 6.35mm Browning(.25auto) version of the model 1913 made in Suhl, Germany. I don't know much about it, was found in my grandfather's safe after he passed away. From the serial, it appears to be a 2nd generation or variant of the sidearm and appears to be 100% original, with original grip panels as well. I've cleaned the gun up, as it's sat in the safe since probably the 1950's. It doesn't appear to have been fired more than a handful of times. The firing pin is in perfect condition, and aside from what looks like a bit of pocket wear or holster wear (there wasn't a holster), it is in good condition for how old of a firearm it is. There was very little rust, and what there was came off with a little CLP and cotton rags.
It's a neat firearm and a good collector piece, but it would just be a safe queen for me. We didn't even know he had it, so it's not something that holds much in sentimental value. I'd like to trade it for a Ruger (Mk II-IV) .22 LR or similar to teach my wife and children pistol shooting affordably, or a compact 9mm or .45 (preferably hammer fired over striker and metal over polymer) but I'll entertain any firearm trade offer.
Also, if you just have more information on the pistol, or corrections to what I post, please, by all means enlighten me. It's not something I found much information on. I know it was made before 1951 because that's when JP Sauer & Sohn were moved to West Germany and no longer in Suhl, and that it's a .25acp and holds 7+1. Is striker fired, and while I haven't shot it, yet, I will if I don't trade it before I get the chance. Hell, I'd just like to know more about this pistol than what I've been able to dig up.
