It is a Umarex, but I distressed it with patience and synthetic wire wool.

The grips took a bit of effort with a dremel. Be careful of the area around the safety, the wood gets pretty thin there. Most of the wood of the grips needs to be removed. There is some delicate cutting to do round the protruding pins near the safety to allow the grips to sit flush. Definitely doable, if you have a dremel!

Your Umarex P08 is different from mine. The thumb saftey on yours is marked as S & F, where mine is marked like my original P08s (in German). Are your side plate, toggle, etc numbered? Mine is numbered. Must be different models out floating around.

It was in the fire position; when I engage the safety it is written in German. All the numbers match (I had to say that

), and are 15. These are made in Taiwan and branded as Umarex, but are also sold under different brands, so differences could well exist.

Mine was made by Walther. "AC" is clearly stamped on the toggle!

Since Umarex owns Walther they can do that.

Thanks for the info. I couldn't see the numbers on the side plate, takedown, etc. from the photos. You are correct about the "S" "F" and then German under the safety......I just took another look at mine.
