Long aftermarket 32 round magazine present is included as well as vintage light brown leather sling. This Reising is one of a number of guns which found their way into Law Enforcement use.

SHERIFF DEPT 19”. This indicates the 19th such weapon they had at the time. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is extremely fine original smooth lustrous blue finish with crisp lettering on metal parts. Wood is fine with numerous light handling marks and a little loss of finish in places. Mechanics are crisp. Bore is extremely fine, shiny and bright. Bolt face extremely fine.
