Introducing the Spreewerk (CYQ) P-38, a semi-automatic pistol with a rich history and impressive features. This firearm is in very good condition and has maintained its functionality, despite its age. Produced in 1945, this 9mm Luger caliber piece shows minor signs of use, bearing only light superficial marks. This sale includes the original pistol with its brown ribbed bakelite grips, a custom shortened 3.375" barrel, and a single 8-round magazine.
One of the remarkable aspects of this P-38 is the unique history it carries. Manufactured by Spreewerk under German occupation in Czechoslovakia, this P-38 is a symbol of a turbulent era. Its production process, expedited towards the end of World War II, resulted in a coarse milling finish that adds to its historical charm. The "y" serial suffix and WaA88 Acceptance stamps visible on this piece further authenticate its origins.
This P-38 model was a crucial sidearm in the German army during World War II. Crafted with a custom shortened 3.375" barrel, it offers a unique blend of history and functionality and could possibly carry a more fascinating provenance than we were able to ascertain. The gun's bore is in excellent condition, reflecting its well-preserved state. Despite the severe fading of the "FGS OH 9M" importer stamp, this firearm has maintained its blued finish and its original brown ribbed bakelite grips.
This isn't just a rare custom firearm; it's a symbol of times past, a testament to the craftsmanship of the period, and a collector's item with a story to tell. Don't miss the opportunity to own this historical artifact!
