    they made a mod1 and mod2 prewar. Semiauto/boltaction. Then a kkj and some others. These later ones were also made post war. Mag all interchage I think ? as long as they are in .22lr

    Default walther

    no problem.. there is a notch on the receiver that locks the bolt if you want single shot. If not locked its a blow back repeater. There are two clip types. The hi-cap type is very scarce. The mod2 is more valuable. It has a longer barrel and adjustable rear sight. As you know. Condition is everything with these. 500-1500.00 is the range I'd place on one depending on condition.

    When you pop out the bolt carrier you can see where walther got the idea for the g41.

    The KKJ was a post-war creation wasn't it? The Model I and II were made during the war also. "yes it is" m99.

    Be careful of shooting with hi-power .22 lr cartridges. I was shooting a Model I and the bolt handle cracked off. I had traded for it with Bob Simpson and told him about it. He remarked that in his opinioin, they were not designed for the modern hi-powered .22s. I had the bolt masterfully reattached.

    I remember shooting one at a gun shop in Indianapolis in the 1970s and I found the sear had worn significantly. Five shots in a hurry.

    I am not aware of any semi-auto .22 rifles made by Walther other than the Mod I and II. Same in Walther, a German Legend.

    Now your confusing me.

    Is a model II not a clip fed semi auto-repeater pre-1945?



    "confusion reduced I hope by removing two posts..M99"

    Default yes..

    I cleaned this up as it was getting really confusing. The mod1 and mod2 are basicly the same rifle. Mod1 has a shorter barrel flip rear sight. Mod2 has a long barrel and a sliding V notch rear sight like a walther sport modell. You can get a manual also for these rifles from Cornell publications. Its a reprint of an orig.
    I had one and its of good quality. I sold it with the rifle.

    Anyway; I thought walther made a "bolt action" repeater. Not to be confused with something thats self loading. I may be mistaken. I though I have seen one..


    Also: they would be crown/n or bug/crown pre1940 proofed. I have never seen an eagle/N example.
