But the German army did order guns and they were specially marked. So, what I'd like to do is take a look at what how do we know it's military issued, the one unique feature that you'll find is the Waffen proof. Now, this started out as an eagle 3 5 9 proof and then went to a Waffen 3 5 9 proof. I'm going to show you these proof marks by talking about the different variations now in every video. Sometimes people say you don't give enough detail and other people say way too much detail.
You bored me to death. So, what I've done is I put together a cheat-sheet which you can get from us by going go to our Website or just email us at the address below and ask us for this and we'll email this over to you. You can also do a quick screenshot if that helps. For those of you who like the detail, this will go over all of the serial numbers for each variation.
The first variation is in Eagle 3 5 9, now 3 5 9 was the inspector approved for the Walther factory. You'll see that on all the Walther weapons, they'll have an eagle or a Waffen Eagle 3 5 9. This is the first variation. High polished finish comes in a specific Sierra range. It was issued to the military as evidenced by the Waffen proofs. These are on the frame in the slide and also a few.
You'll find the slide Waffen proof on the tang. I don't have one to show you, but right here is the tang right on the end. Sometimes they'll be a stamp. Typically, they're stamped here in here. So, this is the first variation because it's Eagle 3 5 9. Now, let's talk about this second variation, which is also high polish. But now we've moved to an Waffen Eagle 3 5 9, again, this is an inspector proof. Just like in the American factories, the inspectors would put their initials.
This was kind of like your initial, but it was an inspector proof with 3 5 9, meaning Walther factory. This is a high polish finish. We still have the brown grip. Beautiful looking gun. The finish on this is exactly like the commercial guns.
It wasn't later until later mid war to late war, they deteriorated the finish to adult finish. We're going to see that in a minute. Now, in a previous video, I said, for those of you who are sharp, you'll remember this.
I said, if you ever see a numbered magazine, whether it's on the spine or the side or the bottom. It was a special contract. So, this Waffen, 3 5 9 has two matching magazines. Must be for a special purpose and I won't bore you with the detail, but we have evidence from downed aircraft, but also from going to some of the Luftwaffe bases.
We find these were sent to the Luftwaffe. This is a Luftwaffe marked holster with two matching mags. The purchase is subject to all the terms and conditions set forth herein. The purchaser assumes full responsibility thereof and if requested will sign a confirmation of the purchase.

Manurhin were AA. You should be able to place your pistol in this range and determine the approximate date of manufacture.
To locate the correct serial number for manufacturing purposes, look on the back panel or the motherboard. What is the date of manufacture of a walther pp serial number ?
The majority of these guns are exactly like the old-school revolvers, minus the heavy trigger pull of the double action. As such, they are no more dangerous than those revolvers in concept—Draw, aim, pull trigger, repeat as necessary until threat is eliminated. Where you run into problems with the standard manual safety sort of pistol is that the casual shooter becomes confused by all the options: Safety on? Safety off? Double-action trigger? Single-action trigger…? I have literally watched panicked shooters trying to make an M9 function for them, fumbling along like ninepins.
One I remember stood there pulling the trigger a dozen times with the safety on before they realized that the safety was set, then they flipped it off, got off one round more-or-less in the general direction of the target, and then proceeded to scatter several subsequent shots all over hell and gone because the single-action trigger was so different, and so much easier to pull. The Glock idea is simplicity itself: Is the gun out of the holster? I could swear it was on!
The Austrians had experience with their version of the P1, a Walther P clone that they had in service for years before the Glock. Austrian military personnel specifically describe the same problem I am with the manual of arms for that weapon, which matches the M9.
The safety has to be designed into other aspects of the system, like always carrying the gun in a proper holster that covers the trigger guard. Browning, so anybody calling them useless is thus questioning competence of before mentioned gun designer, which is — if I am not mistaken — appreciated by most U. Also these cartridge have long service record and if they would actually be of no use, then how they could survive in popular usage in Europe through Great War and Second World War? You want to get some tall people in, enlarge the gene pool.
S only fatter as well… Which is happening here also, but to a lesser extent. The Dutch are famously lanky. So before shooting, you say, are you Dutch in a Dutch voice prior? Radioactive fish are not going to give you the spurt in growth you need. One of the really amazing things about weapons is the way the mind seems to imbue them with the characteristics and intent of the users.
They were also favored by various German Nazi organizations for similar uses, but I doubt that the Nazis were quite so prolific as their Soviet competitors—The Germans preferred rifles and machineguns for their mass-murders with firearms. The weapon does not take up the nature of the user, nor does the user take up the nature of the weapon. To think otherwise is simply magical thinking at its worst.
I laugh at that logic.
