Walther PP

[berto]

Hi I'd like to hear your opinion on this Walther, production date is 1938 , serial number is 118xxxP, SA der NSDAP Gruppe Niedersachsen, bore is shinny with strong rifling.
What would be its value and how rare is it?

I believe you have a rare PP and it appears to be correct.That is a very nice PP! Would love to see pics of the other side of the frame. probably would have came with a party leader holster originally I would think......not your average SA member would have had such a pistol ! I will have to check my books for other examples. but I bet this is special.

I was right, this will make your day........ although you apparently dont have the party leader holster,like this example did. but notice what it pulled at the auction and your is (more pics would help) mint!and the serial number tells me its early.lord knows who may have had this at one time. and talk about the ultimate display piece with a mint chained SA or regular SA dagger !

Hi thank you for reply
I contacted the previous owner because I bought a gun in commission sales in the local gun shop where it came from the police because the previous owner lost his license for possession of weapons.
And His story of Walther is:
Walter was captured by the Partisans and after World War II was in possession of Tito's bodyguard, who later gave the gun to the man who worked for UDBA( secret police organization of Yugoslavia) and was the father-in-law of last owner.
Gun was originally in another gun store but the store was robbed and gun ended at the police station where someone checked the serial number on the gun so serial number is without bluing. After police found out that the serial number of the gun is original, they sent it to another gun shop where I bought it.
Pistol was not on display at the store ,it was at back of an office in the box with the other weapons(mostly junk) that has come from the police . I bought it very cheaply.
I will take a picture the other side when I get the time.
