Marc, I have a P 38 holster. I took the pistol out of it for storage in my cabinet. I would like to begin trying to find a way to trade for the correct one just for conversation sake.
I understand peoples hesitation when I say I am going to my gunsmith with it. He may not be a P08 expert but he is an expert at what he does. I am not looking to him to evaluate the gun, just stop any further deterioration that may be occurring and to evaluate the condition of the metal parts and bore. He will also check head space and a few other things I have no idea of. I know he has repaired a few and uses Simpson LTD for one of his resources.
I think my crappy pictures have misrepresented the pistol a bit.
Firing it isn't as important to me as what it represents on a personal note. I am the same way with my collectable motorcycles. They were made to ride and ride them I will.
I look forward to learning more about this pistol and other variations although I have too many expensive hobbies as it is!
Dave
