In the "Yemeni" gun symbol "ی" is "Y" in English and "ف" is "F". I don't know what they stand for. Most likely an abbreviation. On the Persian contract the marking reads " city police" with date 1317 in Persian calender which translate s to 1938.
Great video! It is the little variations that make collecting these pistols exciting. I purchased a 5-digit with "P" from you a couple of years ago. It is 99802P.
I like your videos and always learn something(s). I have a '66 Ulm PPK marked as "Made in West Germany." A Cold War gun that made it over before the 1968 import restrictions.
I collect Walther's, most of my collection is prewar but i love different variations.
Very interesting Tom. Love learning this stuff.
Thank you Tom and Randy!!! Enjoy your videos!
WHAT A DEAL.....Thanks Tom....
Shoe🇺🇸
What a satisfying feeling to learn new information, still at this time in your profession.
Great show and thanks for the info 👍👍👍👍👍
Great history
Thank you
Please do a video on the P1001-0 East German PP copies. You’ve sold them on your site before. Supposedly made in Sühl post-war.
Very nice
I was looking at your navy knife something my dad might have carried in World War II. I guess I have to save up.
Thank you for the clarification!! I thought my '64 PP was French made since it doesn't have a country on the slide. It's an Ulm gun, however, on the right side of the slide I have "NW 14,7" which I have no clue what Interarms meant with that.
I have a 1965 PP all matching in the box. Mine is stamped NW 897 on the right side of slide. 897 are the last three numbers of the serial number, and both matching clips have 897 stampings. It is my understanding that NW stamped PPs were West German Police pistols. I've had mine since the early 1980's when Interarms imported many of these. The shop where I bought mine had around 20 PPs in the boxes for sale. Perhaps Tom at Legacy has a bit more information.
@@chiefs777 Omg, Thank You!!! My last serial digits are 147. Mine is in near-new condition to have been a police gun though, but it is possible. I wonder what they adopted after the PP. Maybe the P5, Sig P6 and HK P7?
@@Plata-ori-plumbu Not sure what pistol followed the PP. My PP is near mint condition as well. When I got mine, I looked at a number of the PPs at the gun shop. Some of them had a lot of wear on them, others not so much, and a few near mint. Sounds like we both got a good one.
@@chiefs777 I've read somewhere that the West German police wanted more modern guns in 9x19 after the Munich Olympics massacre of 1972 where they were still using .32acp pistols (don't ask me why they weren't using Walther P38/P1's). Sig, Walther and HK came out with the P5, P6 and P7. The German police were so impressed with all three that they adopted all three pistols (the "Wonder-Nine" double-stack pistols weren't invented just yet). I still don't understand why they chose the Walther P5 (have one) with the heel-mag release over the "American-style" button release PP and PPK pistols. Early times and strange politics...
How the heck can you be wrong on a date when you wrote the darn book?
Just kidding of course.
Once again it behoves me to thank you for most excellent content. Basically there’s 3 channels I check every day. Yours, Ian’s and Mr. Mark Novak’s.
Guess that makes what my interests are pretty transparent.
Oh crap. Should of said 4 channels. Mr. or should I say Dr. Felton’s channel is also a daily “Lets see if there’s something new to look at?” Place.
Great Vid!
I have questions on a Walther P38 I have come across.
The markings on it are "6558 ac 45". and three little eagle that has "359" below them, the center eagle has a small circle, not able to make out what is inside the circle.
Any idea when and where this firearm was manufactured?
Thanks!
This gun is pretty sweet I do not own one of these
I confess. The Yemeni one is a gag😁
well done tom keep them coming
Gruß aus Ulm. Birthplace of Albert Einstein.😊
Video Idea: Sights and sight variations on PPs and PPKs.
Thanks for the great content and BS free presentation.
I am enthralled
I love all the geeky stuff Tom
Great video makes me sad i didn't start earlier
now my 63 pp 7.65 doesn't look that impressive
Love your informational videos!
Why do none of the legacy collectible import guns have import marks on them?
🥃
👍🏻🍸
Im Persian and thanks for this interesting info's
I picked up a 32acp Walther with no slide markings, just a 6 digit serial number 389xxx with a small "p" place a little lower. No other markings, inside or out. I'm looking to sell for a friend and don't have an idea or value
Hello, I have a question, is it possible to interchange the bullet for the Walther PP .32 ACP with the 7.65x21 Parabellum bullet? Is this at all possible?
Excellent video, as usual. One current mistake, though. As mentioned by Dieter Maschall amoung other authors, ALL PP and PPK from 1952 to 1985 were made by Manurhin in France. As Manurhin was not a name in arms business, more and more parts were assembled and proofed in Ulm, Germany, to push sales up. In the middle 1980, the 2 companies didn't agree any more and broke the partnership. Walther Ulm took over the production to 2002... probably not the smartest decision at the time.
34***A on frame and slide
70 engraved on the chamber
Pp made in Germany
What year is this one ?
Thoughts on the 380 MKE Kirikkale?
Hello, I have a question. I have a K96 cone hummer Mauser in my collection, it is in excellent condition but it has no rifling in the barrel. The inside of the barrel shows factory finishing but no rifling. Can you tell me what this is? Sincerely, Alexander
I have a 5-digit serial number "54778" but without "P"
Do you have information about this variation?
What about a six digit starting 268 and ending in an A... also stamped made in west Germany?
I have a model pp 7.65 that has no markings on the left side and only sereal Numbers on the right side.
Nothing else have you ever heard of one of these?
I have a PP with serial number 42522 LR. Does anyone know when this was made?
Am I stupid for thinking that the Persian guns should use Arabic numerals?
2 different numeric symbols in some
What does the "90 to 60 safety" mean?
Basel is pronounced like Bar-zul (German) or Barl (French)
Uuuuhhhh non.
Les allemands et les Suisses alémaniques (Deutsche schwyzer) prononcent "Bazel" ou "Bazl" mais certainement pas "Barzul".
Et les francophones disent "Bâle" et non pas "Barl".
En fait, en français ou en allemand ça se prononce tel que ça s'écrit.
Gruss aus das Elsass. 😘
(J'habite juste en face de Basel et je suis alsacien donc je parle presque le même dialecte alémanique que les habitants de Basel...)
@@68monstro Hi, thanks for your local knowlege, I appreciate it. I have been to Basel many times (I used to work for an airline) and have heard it pronounced by both German and French speakers. It's a difficult city to write a phonetic pronunciation for, and my first attempts were not the best I admit, but still better than the gentleman in the video I think.
The best thing to do for an English speaker would be to google the pronunciation, so it can be heard, then replicated. If I were to try again, perhaps Bahz'l for German, or Bahl for French? Not perfect I know, but for an English speaker I think it's somewhat close?
I do my best to pronounce foreign words as accurately as possible, so thank you again for your knowledge and input. Merci!
It is very attractive looking and is still valuable, but unfortunately it become obsolete.
Do you have a Polizei Dienst Pistole 6.35mm
Have you ever seen a stainless steel walther PP
