Need some Help

[MilSpec308]

My step father was renovating his parents house after they passed recently and came across an old WWII bring back Pistol with holster, taken from one of the not so lucky. Below are the pictures and paperwork from the military issuing the property to my stepfathers dad. If you could share any info on the pistol including value it would be greatly appreciated.

Sauer 38h, I think?

yep. thats exactly what it is. cool how it has the nazi symbol on the back of the pistol too. Any idea on value?

None, I'd check gun broker or guns America. They made them in 3 different calibers. 32acp, 380 and .22

Wow, found 2 on G/A neither looked original. They are listed 550-600. You have the papers, holster and it looks original. Great find! They seemed to have been used for the Nazi police.

yea, I found a couple too. I made sure to tell them not to have anything done to the gun to make it more pleasing to the eye, as that could potentially destroy every bit of value it may have.

If you want the market value, check Gunbroker and not what it's listed for but what it sold for.

Ive reached out to some others in the field of WWII collectables too...being that this has documentation, it might be worth more or less in its condition.
