    Walther P1 and P38 Magazines

    Looking for information on these 3 magazines. 2 are stamped Walther P1 9mm and 1 is stamped Walther P38. My neighbor has had them for a long time so I do not believe they are cheap knockoffs and they do have so weight to them.
    Information

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    The P1 mags are used in the P4 as well. The P38's I don't know.

    They're all post war P1/P38 magazines, and should work in any P1 or P38. They look like legit Walther made magazines to me.

  6. Thank You to RazorBurn For This Useful Post:

    Thanks, So these being in the 60's would fall closer to the $14 mark

    I haven't really priced them so I wouldn't know. I just know that anything WWII marked is going to bring a premium over something later. My guess is that of the three, the one marked P38 would be worth a little more than the other two simply because they only called them that for a few years after wars end. Then came the aluminum frame P1's. Being original and not aftermarket magazines adds value also. If the $14 is for unmarked magazines, marked ones would be worth more, the P38 marked a bit more and then WWII era a big jump up.

    I think you'd be giving them away at $14.
