3/3/22 - This is a nice example of a Walther Model 8 sold in the commercial market in the 1930's. The gun is all matching and has the proper "Crown N" commercial proofs. It has retained about 93% of its factory nickel-plated finish. There are small flakes in the finish throughout, but most of the finish loss is actually on the top of the slide on both sides of the top rail. The flaking in other areas is most noticeable on the grip straps, tang, and trigger guard. Comes with period-correct Walther grips and a blued magazine. There is a significant chip at the top of the left grip panel. The rifling in the bore is worn with pitting throughout.
