WWII G.I. Bring-Back "fnh" CZ P27, 6.75mm (32 ACP) (Belt/ Buckle/ Holster/ Magazines), SN - 428230

This CZ Model 27 pistol believed to be a U.S. GI WWII bring back and comes with a 1920s SA Nazi Party belt/ buckle with first pattern SA (Nazi) sunwheel Swastika, holster & (2) magazines. Oral history of this pistol from the son of the now deceased former U.S. G.I. is: "My father claimed that he took this pistol from a German officer (possibly S.S.) in 1945 during the liberation of Austria and then sent it to his family back in the states. I believe that the belt & holster were sent back at the same time". No physical documentation exists. This pistol is marked "fnh Pistole Modell 27 Kal. 7,65" on the left side of the frame, along with at least three Nazi acceptance stamps (right frame, top slide & barrel). Other features include a parkerized military finish, brown checkered bakelite grips, 3.9" barrel and comes with (2) original 8-round magazines that are marked "P. Mod. 27" on the bottom of the base. This gun retains a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. The Germans often used a letter code system to replace factory names. The Ceska Zbrojovka [CZ] factory received the code letters “fnh”. The brass buckle that accompanies this pistol is a nice example of an early 1920s first pattern sunwheel Swastika with rounded arms. The black leather belt is correctly marked "RBNr.0/0356/0012" = A. Jelinek & Sohn (period correct) on the inside - size 58. The black leather flap holster does not appear to be marked. The CZ vz. 27 is a Czechoslovakian semi-automatic pistol, based on the pistole vz. 24, and chambered for 7.65 mm Browning (.32 ACP). After the German occupation of Czechoslovakia in mid-March, 1939, the pistol was folded into the German armed and police forces as the P27. It was produced after the war, in Czechoslovakia, until the 1950s.
