Description
8/5/26 - This is a nice example of a very rare first-variation Zero Series Walther P.38. One of only about 1,000 produced, it features the hidden extractor and rectangular firing pin. This particular example has all matching numbers and "Eagle 359" proofs throughout. Fitted with correct matching-numbered and "Eagle 359" proofed grips. It does comes with a matching-numbered magazine, and the numbering does appear to be original. However, the magazine has only one "Eagle 359" proof at the base of the spine. From our understanding, a first-variation magazine should have two - so this magazine is difficult to explain. In any case, the original finish on the gun rates roughly 80-85%. The majority of the finish loss is on the front strap, but there is also spotty/scratchy wear along the right side of the slide, general high edge wear, and muzzle wear. The bore has good rifling, but there is pin-pricking throughout. The De-cocker is functional.
