The pistol is DA/SA with a decocking lever. The slide is stamped with a pinned breech block and rear-only vertical serrations. Sights are fixed, with a front blade and square-notch rear, both set in dovetails.
Contract and origin markings are extensive and clear: P6 model marking on the slide, the NW agency code, German proof/inspection marks on the right-front slide, "Made in W. Germany" on the slide, and 9mmx19 on the barrel hood. The C.A.I. GEORGIA VT import mark is present.
Authenticity details include the 5/79 acceptance date on the slide and matching last three serial digits on major components, consistent with issued West German police P6 pistols of the era.
