Description:
1944 German MAUSER World War II Third Reich “byf/44” Code 9mm C&R P.38 WWII

WaA135 Proofed; Designed to Replace the Luger

Here we present a C&R German Third Reich Mauser “byf/44” P.38 Pistol, made circa 1944 in Oberndorf, Germany. The P.38 was designed by Walther to replace the Luger P.08 as the standard service weapon for the Third Reich’s Wermacht. The Luger was a ground-breaking design, but quite expensive to produce.

The P.38 doubled down on that and 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 P.38 features the WaffenAmt “Eagle/WaA135” and the “Eagle/Swastika” marked on the right side of the slide, and left side of the frame above the trigger also showing the “Eagle/WaA135 Proof. The standard Mauser P.38 markings “P.38” and “byf/44” are located on the left side of the slide.
The overall condition is good. Strong action. The bore is bright. Solid grips. Markings are sharp. Mixed numbers.
