Product Description
c1943 German MAUSER World War II “byf/43” Code 9x19mm Luger P.38 Pistol C&R
Third Reich Semi-Auto Designed to Replace the Luger P.08
Here we present a C&R German Mauser P.38 Pistol, made circa 1943 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” marked on the right side of the slide, and left side of the frame above the trigger. The standard Mauser P.38 markings “P.38” and “byf/43” are located on the left side of the slide.
The overall condition is fine. Original blue finish. The numbers match. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. Grips are fine. The holster shows wear and the belt loops have since separated. A nice German rig from the 2nd World War.
