Description

9/6/24 - This is a near-mint example of the rare Party Leader Walther PPK. This particular example is the one featured Larry Vickers Guide to WWII Germany (Vol 2, Pg. 43-47) as the example of a Party Leader and was later sold out of Vickers' personal collection.  The pistol is in exceptional condition with a minty bore and just a tiny hint of muzzle wear.  The grip is guaranteed original and in terrific condition, with just a minuscule stress crack on the surface at the top of the spine.

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.
