Description

Two (2) P38 Magazines manufactured by Walter and ENM (Erste Nordbohmische Metallfabrik). The ENM magazine is marked with “jvd” on the left side and “P38 / U” on the right. The spine is stamped with the Waffen inspection code e/359. These magazines were issued with late war Walters pistols (ac45) and are considered RARE among P38 collectors. The second magazine was produced by Walter post April 1942 when changes were implemented. Magazines no longer had serial numbers, there is only one “e/359” stamp on the spine, and the left side of the housing is marked with “P38”. These magazines were paired with P38s produced between 1942 to 1945. Both magazines retain much of their original factory finish and have strong springs. Please see photos for overall condition. Part of the John Bannister Collection. Each Magazine: L 4.75”, W 1.75”, 0.50”
