Built as an alloy-framed evolution of the P38, this P1 utilizes a reinforced frame with a visible transverse cross-bolt for durability. The pistol combines a gray steel slide and barrel with a black aluminum-alloy frame, delivering the classic two-tone service look of the era.
Service provenance is clear: it bears the Bundeswehr property stamp "Bw," a starburst-style acceptance symbol on the slide with the date "5/82," two proof/inspection marks on the underside of the trigger guard, and a small inspection/star stamp on the slide stop lever. The slide is additionally marked with "Carl Walther Ulm/Donau."
