A P38 Shooter

Post by martin08 »

I picked up my third P38 this weekend, and finally have a shooter. Still, it is a decent and matching example of a Nazi war-time production, Walther ac 42. No import marks or Russian capture evidence.

It's not rare or in pristine condition like my others, with only about 70% bluing. But no major pitting or damage, and it appears to be in excellent mechanical shape.

So it will likely go, "Bang, bang, bang, bang..."

Pics, and thanks for looking.

They are fun to shoot, nice and noisy, and just plain fun. It looks like a nice P38 to me.

Danged if that doesn't look like a soldier's gun. Nice pick-up!

Very cool, this is one of those guns that you can be glad it can't talk.
