Description:
Extremely rare Walther toggle link semi auto shotgun. 12 ga, 2 1/2" shells. This gun is very early production, sn 15xx., and only has the "Walther's Patent" marking on the left side of the receiver. It is in excellent mechanical condition, with an excellent bore. The stock is sound, with only a minimum of scratches. There is a repair to the wrist of the stock, and a repair to the fore-end. I have shot this gun and it shoots fine, however getting these guns to cycle can be a problem, as noted in this post from a Walther collector: ""I've shot it w/trimmed shells handloaded to standard 2 1/2" pressure and it shoots fine but won't even attempt to eject. No one whom I've contacted has one which functions semi-automatically, or self-loads. It appears to be basically a locked-breech blowback design, but with a (very) short-recoil initial movement, which I assume is what should break the link for continuation of the cycle. Hand movement of the upper assembly for that short distance requires quite an effort (and still does not break the link!), so I don't understand how recoil could manage it. If anyone has had successful operation, or knows where the problem may lie, information on loads or a fix would be much appreciated."" I've not put any effort trying different loads to get it to cycle. These guns were made from 1921 thru 1931. They are truly unique, not only from the toggle link, but to load the tubular magazine, you slide a catch and the fore-end drops down so you can insert the shells. Shipped to your FFL or C&R Payment by USPS money order, shipping is included in price. I ship USPS Priority insured.
