PRE-OWNED – WALTHER P38 AC41 9MM 4.9″ HANDGUN for sale
The Walther P38 was in production from 1939 to 1945. After the war from 1945-1946, several thousands of pistols were assembled for the French armed forces (frequently dubbed “grey ghosts” because of parkerized finish and grey sheet metal grips). Only after 1957 was the P38 again produced for the German military. Slowly over time, West Germany desired to rebuild its military so that it could shoulder some of the burdens for its own defense. Walther retooled for new P38 production since no military firearms production had occurred in West Germany since the end of the war, knowing that the military would again seek Walther firearms. This model is in great condition with only a few scratches and rust marks along the side. Still a great piece of history to add to the collection! (one mag, no box)
