    I'm a retired Dutch police officer. I had the Walther P5 for 35 years as my standard Dutch police pistol. I loved that pistol. I never had an issue with it. It functioned perfect and I was a very good marksman with it. It gave me a very secure feeling, always being able to put the bullet where I wanted it, even in the dark, seldom a miss. I knew Walther didn't change very much in the design but I still was surprised how much those pistols are alike. I loved your video. While you were busy I almost felt the gun in my hands. ;-)

      Most American history books, they won't tell you that Adolf Hitler was demon possessed. He was no different compared to the Old Testament biblical historical figure named Haman. Both of these historical figures have plotted against the Jews in different time periods. Haman plotted against the Jews in 478 B.C. Persia, right where Iran and Iraq are both today. Queen Esther was on the throne at that time. Haman was a philosopher who had so much going up against Mordecai, who wasn't the Lord God's prophet. Adolf Hitler plotted against the Jews starting in February 1933; he did it during the Great depression America. ✡️

    I’m almost 60 years old and have worked on quite a few over the years. The old gunsmith’s used to say if it had been in a fire, replace every spring in it. Heat kills the temper in the spring. Great job bringing that one back.

      @@TheKinzlerBros I do a lot of the same thing you Bros do with old guns and have had a glass bead blaster for a long time, but here's a tip for you , after glass beading the surface I go over all the parts with a green scuff bob on my dremel at about mid speed , it makes a huge difference in the surface texture , a bit smoother than the blasted surface but not as smooth as a polished one either . Try it next time before you start the bluing process , I think you love the results.

    Awesome job you did restoring that P-38 gun to working order. At first I thought that it was beyond salvaging and that it was very hard to find ammo for it, since the gun was from a bygone era, but you managed to find the ammo for it, not to mention that you were able to get it to fire properly without jamming due to age.

    I'm really floored by the degree of the tool marks on these parts! Man you can really imagine that their endmills excetera were a bit dull and they were galling these finish passes! That's very surprising to me from them!

      @@TheKinzlerBros,
      I didn't realize it had an English barrel! The English are very underrated in their ability to produce fine machine parts. Incidentally, the tool marks I was referring to up there were like the machining marks. You could see where the chips weren't cleared for their finish passes in some areas? They may not have even done a finish like 'skim pass' to achieve a better final machine finish! Looking like they were pretty 'down-and-dirty' when making these by that point!? Hard to blame them when their factories were being obliterated under their feet!

      Чесесчур сложная конструкция, как и у Люгера Р -- 08. С моей точки зрения сущуствует единственный критерий совершенства конструкции -- количество копий, которые можно ещё назвать репликами, клонами, цитатами - да как угодно. Бесспорный чемпион мира здесь -- COLT 1911 сэра Джона Мозеса Браунинга.

    I know you did this a year ago but I just wanted to tell you great job 👍🏼 I have a 1942 P-38 and 1937 PPK my grandfather bought back from WW2. He was in the 10th Mountain division and he got them from a battlefield when they liberated Italy. The P-38 still looks and fires like new, it even has the soldiers name written inside the holster. The PPK isn’t quite as nice but in very good condition
    Unfortunately he did get the holster for it ! I told him to get his ass back over there and find it but I found that wasn’t a good idea! I’m just kidding of course, he was a great man who raised me and I can’t put into words how much I miss him, I also have the 1943 Colt 1911A1 he carried through the war
    Of all the guns I have that Colt is my prized possession!
    I just wanted to thank you for saving our world history ! What you do is so important
    Keep up the great work !
