Lot 25342:
Mauser HSc 7.65mm
"The HSc, as it was called (“HS” standing for Hahn Selbstspanner—“self-cocking hammer, ” and the “c” indicating the third and accepted design), was a streamlined, up-to-date double-action blowback. Reflecting the sleek Art Deco look of the period. It featured a reduced exposed hammer, the spur of which—to allow for easier concealment—peeked out of the rear of the slide just far enough to allow a positive thumb-cock. A single-stack magazine held eight rounds and this, along with one round in the chamber gave the pistol an effective nine-shot capability. The magazine had a typical European heel-style catch, though a lip on the forward part of the magazine allowed it to be easily extracted when the catch was pushed to the rear.This pistol is an excellent example of the post-war French production. French proof mark present on the left side of the trigger guard. Import marked on the right side of the frame. Includes one magazine. "
