Payment Types Accepted: Credit Card, Certified Check, Money Order Description: World War II Nazi German P.38 Pistol in 9mm Luger “ac/43” by Mauser w Dated Holster & Spare Magazine Here we present a World War II Nazi German “ac43” Code P.38 Pistol by Mauser, made circa October of 1943 in Oberndorf, germany. The P38 was designed by Walther to replace the Luger P.08 as the standard service weapon for the Third Reich’s Wermacht. The Wermacht was the primary buyer of these pistols, but the German police also used about 6,800 P38s.The Luger was a ground-breaking design, but quite expensive to produce. The P38 was the first locking breech pistol to feature the double/single action firing mechanism with a decocking safety lever, a prelude to many modern pistols to come. It also features a loaded chamber indicator that is both visible and tactile, extending out of the top rear of the slide, just above the hammer. The falling block locking mechanism was also carried into future pistol designs. Many of these design features are found in the Beretta 92 or U.S. M9 pistols. This P38 Pistol was made by Mauser, which is indicated by the “ac43” secret code on the slide of the pistol. It was made circa August of 1943. It features red-brown Bakelite grips. The magazine is Third Reich proofed. It also comes with an unmarked, blued spare magazine, held in the magazine pouch on the black leather holster. The holster is German military and maker marked “bla/1944”. Underneath this is “Eagle/WaA159”. To the right of this is “P38” in large letters. The overall condition is very fine.
