Walther P38 “ac 42” – WWII German Pistol – British Proofed Import – Excellent Condition

Offered here is an original Walther P38 semi-automatic pistol, chambered in 9mm and marked “ac 42”, indicating Walther production in 1942 during WWII.

This example is in excellent overall condition, especially for a wartime P38. The pistol shows very minimal handling wear, with a strong, even finish and sharp edges. It presents far better than the typical service-worn examples commonly encountered.

Please note: any visible marks in the photos are primarily handling fingerprints from photographing the pistol. The firearm was wiped down after photos and properly stored.

This pistol bears a British import/proof mark, indicating post-war import through the UK. While this does place it slightly below non-import collector examples, it also reflects part of the firearm’s post-war history.

The grips remain in very nice condition and complement the overall presentation well. The pistol appears mechanically solid with a smooth, consistent action.
