Walther P88

Jack Lawman · 10-02-2006, 11:22 PM

Here are some pics of a Walther P88. It was Walther's entry into the U.S. Army's 1911 replacement competition (ultimately won by the P38 style Beretta). It failed the adverse conditions test, and was probably too expensive to be selected anyway.

A nice example of a fairly uncommon (about 10,000 produced) "wondernine".

Darn nice one! Off hand I can't remember why I don't have one of these??? Seems that I wanted one at one time.
