Description
11/11/26 - This is a nice "ac 43" Walther P.38 rig issued to the Nazi military in 1943. Walther (code "ac") designed the P.38, which the German army adopted in 1938 to replace the Luger as its standard service pistol, and remained its principal maker throughout the war. The gun is all matching and has the proper "Eagle 359" military acceptance proofs. It comes as a rig with two period-correct, but unmarked, magazines and a 1944-dated softshell holster that shows some honest wear. The finish on the gun rates about 85-90%, with general high edge wear, muzzle wear, some spotty wear along the right side of the slide, a few dots of discoloration on the left side of the slide, and some thinning with spotty brown patina on the front strap. Fitted with period-correct blackish-brown bakelite grips. A nice, all-matching ac 43 Walther P.38 rig with Eagle 359 proofs and a 1944-dated holster. The bore is 8/10 with strong rifling, but there is some frosting and light pin-pricking in the grooves. De-cocker is functional.
