SOLD - Exquisite Walther PPK - Nazi Party Leader

Description

9/25/18 - This is an excellent and rare Party Leader Walther PPK. It is all original and correct, with about 97% high-polish blue remaining. There is minor muzzle wear on both sides of the slide and a little on the trigger guard. The grip is in beautiful condition with no cracks, chips or flaws. It is getting harder and harder to find these grips with no flaws, so this could be your chance. Serial dates the pistol to 1939. Excellent finger extension magazine. Minty bore. _____ The Walther PPK with Party Leader Grips was the "Honor Weapon of the Political Leaders". The Hoheitsabzeichen or High Insignia is the Eagle over Swastika found on either side of the grips where the Walther banner is normally located. The person entitled to wear the honor weapons that were awarded them by the Fuhrer were the Political Leaders of the national, regional and district territories, as well as leaders of local and support units. The persons who wore the honor weapon had their authorizations listed in the district personnel offices, and had to have in their possession a weapons permit issued by the police, which was obtained through official channels. These rare pistols were estimated to number around 3,500, and are widely faked, but this one is guaranteed original.
