Re: DDR weaponsOT
mm and all collectors
no I bought the PP from Tom Heller, 99% with brand new holster. The mags are walther manufactured as you can see were they ground out the walther logo and caliber designation. these are new never fired, there are two types of E.german PP's the original walther parts and armours kits were centralized in suhl and reassmbled with new remanufactured parts these gun are marked ac with the typical 1001 designation, not found on lugers, p-38's rebuilt and reassembled. then there are the E.german manufactured on most of the original machinary. They do not have the ac markings, these are of e.german manufacture, I should note that the ac is different in size, from the 1945 code, it is true that P-38's were also manufactured in the 50's at suhl. The sks's there are two variations at this time 1) e.german imported, meaning made in other eastern block countries 2) e.german manufactured as reported have blonde laminated stocks with the typical sling hole behind the wrist as K-98's these are E.german proofed, while the other variations are russian and polish? these have the standard stock with cleaning kit in stock and are only e.german proof with russian markings, some of these guns are again turning up mixed in with these other sks coming in, there may be other variations only time will tell. do not worry about folks who turn there noses up on e.german stuff,
