Description:
WORLD WAR II 3rd Reich German SPREEWERKE cyq Code P.38 Semi-Auto C&R Pistol
Wehrmacht 9x19mm Luger Sidearm
Here we present a C&R German Third Reich Spreewerke “cyq” code P.38 Pistol, made circa the early to middle of World War II. 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 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.
The Werhmacht, which was the unified armed forces of Nazi Germany from 1935 to 1945, was the primary buyer of these pistols, but the German police also used about 6,800 P.38s. The left side of the slide is marked “P.38” and “cyq”, the code for Spreewerke. The gun bears the acceptance marks “Eagle/88” and “Eagle”.
The overall condition is very good. Excellent action. Bright bore with sharp rifling. Numbers on the frame and slide match, the barrel number is 202 numbers away, close enough for a post-factory interunit swap during a group cleaning session. Both grips are in good shape. Legible markings. Here is a nice example of a German Third Reich pistol that was to replace the iconic Luger!
