WALTHER MODEL 8  FIRST VARIATION
This is one of the first variations based on serial number.  390000 to465700 designates a first.  They were first produced in 1939 starting at S/N 90000.  It is one of 390,000 produced.  The left slide legend is “Walther’s Patent Mod. 8” over the WALTHER BANNER.  Right slide legend is Waffenfabrik Walther Zella-Mehlis (Thur.) above the        Crown / N Proof.  S/N 39415X.  Very good mechanical condition.  Bluing is very good on both sides and the slide top.  Grip straps have gone gray.  Magazine is very good with a large, bold “W” on the base plate.  Bore is shiny, clean and strong.  Grips don’t appear to be worn or chipped.  Enameled escushions are like new.  I will consider old or odd automatics in trade.   If you have any questions, feel free to as, but be specific.  Normal 3 day non-firing  inspection, you pay shipping, $50.00 to the lower 47.  Double it to California, Alaska, and Hawaii.  I am currently looking for a Walther Olympia with exposed hammer, a Beretta Model 80 in .22 short. and a Webley M1911 .22 LR Single shot. And scarce .25 autos.  You can contact me at Heidiho1charter.  Let me know what You are looking for.  Maybe I can help.  I have a 55 year  collection of semi- auto pistols.
