D.O.B. for Walther .32

Bookman · 03-17-2003, 01:00 PM

I've acquired a Walther PP auto, .32 ACP, serial nunber 755XXX, black Walther stocks, "crown N" proofs. Can anyone give me a year of manufacture for this gun? Thanks.

Since Walther started mfg of the PP in 1929 with serial nrs at 750K your pistol would have been made "about" 1931 (they were only up to 162K in 1938).

Thanks, Sarge. I hoped it was an early gun, didn't know it was quite that early. I just picked up 800 rounds of .32 ACP and when the snow melts up here (soon) I'll get outside and try it out.
