You are on a roll. Very nice A block. I am curious if any of the P38 experts can add some info on this one. Seems like many have Walther grips and some early unique features. Good price again too.
 
$650 ? Very nice price for a very nice early "cyq" !

I believe that Spreewerk utilized Walther grips for the NLS and most of the "a" block guns. Spreewerk's Julius Posselt produced grips started to appear in late "a". In the very early "b" block, the Walther grips disapeared.
 
Thanks!These are the 5 line type grips,guess they could have been changed but gun supposed to be a bringback,dont think the vet would have done it,maybe an example of the first use of these grips,or someone did it sometime between the vet and me.I could change them real easy with walther grips but dont think I will..Will post pics of inside grip markings.
