As pictured in "Walther-A German Legend" by Manfred Kersten, pages 145-146. From the collection of Geoffrey Sturgess. This pistol was an early attempt to produce a pistol which would be faster and cheaper to manufacture. Using a similar rendition of the rotating barrel locking system patented by Josef Nickl, with as many stamped parts as possible. In late 1943, early 1944 Walther began work at the request of the weapons committee . The first prototypes, the "type1" and "type2" pistols were submitted and turned down. It wasn't until the last months of the war that the sheet metal pistol "type3" was produced, albiet at a very low quantity, and issued to the Volkssturm. The type 1 used a machined steel slide, with a sheet metal stamped and pinned frame. The pistol has a blued finish with checkered walnut grip panels. These psitols used the standard and readily available P.38 pistol magazines. Basic fixed sights. The pistol is unmarked except for a Walther banner on the left side of the slide.
