Surplus Walther P1's
- Thread starter Nordic Marksman
- Start date
A bunch came in about 5 years ago and they were garbage. I bought one......
It did NOT have the cross bolt ! and let me say that the frame was cracked. !!
The gun had terrible accuracy. I could not hit a 8x8 inch plate at 15 feet LOL
Looks like these news would be ALOT better. As for accuracy......I hope a lot better than mine.

Wrapped in walnut and all cleaned up. DA pull is gross. SA pull is surprisingly nice.
Very nice!
You had the right idea slapping wood on cold war iron. I found these on grips4u dot net.
And what goes nice with wood? A monogrammed leather holster. For Sundays and going to meetings and such. My favorite pistol by far.

Can't wait - mine should be arriving on Thursday!
I've also been looking at walnut grips: there's a nice chequered pattern set available from Gun Grip Supply in the US.

They also offer a slotted groove design.

I did some midnight gardening last night and ordered one of these. I had been debating it all week. I also ordered a set of the sweet Turkish walnut grips off Ebay. I probably should have ordered a spare mag. Definitely looking forward to getting this.
I wanted to share some pictures of one of these awesome Walther P1's that I purchased from Nordic Marksman. We are lucky to be able to buy such mint surplus. I also installed a set of the nice Turkish Walnut grips that another member has on a P1 on this thread.

Dang.
I only just saw this thread now?
I would love an 11/83 dated one, the month and year I was born.

Same here actually. I got mine on the last batch. I could be mistaken but mine looks completely unissued and unfired (minus the test rounds). It’s a fantastic shooter and an beautiful piece of Cold War history. Scoop me up while they are available.
