c1943 mfr. WORLD WAR II German SPREEWERKE “cyq” Code P.38 Pistol 9x19mm C&R WW2 Wehrmacht Sidearm!
Description: c1943 mfr. WORLD WAR II German SPREEWERKE “cyq” Code P.38 Pistol 9x19mm C&R WW2 Wehrmacht Sidearm! Here we present a C&R German Spreewerke “cyq” code P.38 Pistol, made circa 1943 in Spandau, 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 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 Wehrmacht, 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 frame and slide bear the acceptance marks “Eagle/88” and “Eagle”. In this case, the “cyq” looks more like “cvq”. It has been posited that this was due to a broken stamp. The overall condition is near fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The numbers match. The grips are in great condition. The black leather flap holster is in fantastic shape for the age. Appears to have been for a High Power by A. KIND of HUNSTIG. On the back it is marked “72638” and on the interior of the flap it is marked “COMMAN 72638”. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 5 inches. Caliber: 9x19mm Luger (Parabellum) Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2100 #217893 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
