Default Walther P-1

I bought mine couple years ago from a company up in Kentucky...(cant remember the name)...But I called the company...asked the guy on the phone about "hand-select"..and he said....."yeah...let me connect you with shirley in the warehouse...she does that"...anyway...the girl came on the line..and I told her I wanted one with the Walther name on side...with Ulm...didnt want one with just P-1..and I made a comment that I was in Germany from 1961-1963....and she asked if I wanted one from one of those years.....I thought she was kidding....but when it came in...had the full Walther name on side....ULM..etc...and dated 4/62....later at a gun show...guy had a stack of the Walther magazines...and after approximately half an hour...found two dated...4/62.....so dont know how much that would increase the value....but they are "matching mags" of a sort.....Im still a bit hesitant about the alloy frame..??....what do you guys think.?............also what about value now that the mags have same date as pistol.....mean anything..???.....Thanks..Hans
