DWM P08 Mixmaster, opinions requested

Tinplatejeff · 03-01-2016, 07:45 PM

I've been wanting a shooter P08 and recently purchased this one. It came from Federal Firearms in Delaware. The proprietor Chris is a first class gentleman and a pleasure to do business with. This P08 came from a collection he was selling for a widow and included many vintage firearms. I paid approximately $800.00 for it.

Here is what I know: The upper (serial number 7519 a block) appears to be matching and the lower (serial number 4281 a block) the same, but different from each other. It is a 9mm, I checked the barrel and chamber. No date over the chamber.

Here's what I would like to know: What vintage is the upper and what vintage is the lower? Is it all made by DWM or by? What are the proof marks, Imperial military or what? Has the chamber date been removed or not?

Other thoughts and/or opinions welcome.

Note, I did not have time today to do a complete field strip. More pictures will follow tomorrow.

Thanks
