Sweet! I have wanted a nice wartime Walther for a long time - alas no 12.6

Well this fellow insisted on following me home

My friend, you must be hanging out in very strange places...




give me the dam adress, now!!!!!







this are very nice little guns, however as Artyman said 12/06.

I have a PP super, and I love it...

Nice!!! I have been looking for one since foolishly selling my dural framed one. Yours looks like a beauty thanks for showing!

There are perks to being a volunteer Range Officer. "You collect those old military guns, I got one I'd like to sell"

Lovely pistol, one of my favorites. I've always wanted a PPK since seeing my first James Bond flic. Too bad I don't have a 12.6 license.

Apologies for O/T: when I was a kid my dad's army buddy brought over his war trophy Mauser Hsc - there's another lovely pistol.

Those things are fantastic little pistols. I had one in 380 and it was scary accurate.

Mine was polished though and marked to the Berlin Police.

Great score there. I have a 12.6 RPAL and like most here, haven't been able to find another decent one since my 380 was stolen over 20 years ago.

Again, International brought them in and distributed them, with holsters and ammunition.

Tradex and Marstar, do great jobs of bringing in surplus firearms but the Canadian market is small to say the least, in comparison to the US.

Still, it's to bad more of it wasn't brought through Canada and more of it stayed here.

Great looking pistol OP. That is about as nice a wartime specimen as I've seen that was produced so late in the war. Was it produced in one of the Nort East French factories??? Manurin???

No it is German Production, in Zella-Mehlis in Thuringen. The Waffenampfs have been pinged.
