Posts: 786 | It could have actually said 'Manhurin' like the poster before you mentioned, but I had a bitch of a time trying to read it. I assumed it was Munich, but it is most certainly a Walther, or a very similar knockoff. I'll do a search on the PPK and PP to see what I can find. Any idea of the year, given the serial numbers? Edit: Ok, I just went to gunbroker and looked at a great deal of the Walther PPK's PP's and everything inbetween, and this gun isn't exactly like any of them. Here are the main details I remember. The slide on this gun was about 3' roughly, but the safety and hammer were different than the models on gunbroker. The safety was very small compared to the other models, and plain looking, with no red dot to indicate the setting. The hammer was unlike anything I'd ever seen either. It was rather wide for a gun that size, almost the width of the entire slide, and short besides. As stupid as this sounds, do you guys remember cap guns from back in the day, where you'd put the red tape with the caps on it and a flat piece of metal would smack them to make it go off? The hammer looked a lot like that, but much more sturdy. This gun has me totally confused at this point. |
