Great video and thank you for showing us those rare handguns. I never seen so many late war Walther PPK pistols in .22 lr in one place. I have heard a reason why Walther began making .22 lr PPK pistols late war is that Walther Officials new the war was going to end and Germany would be the looser. That they made them in .22 LR so they would show the U.S. and allies that they were set up to make pistols for the commercial market. I was fortunate years ago to purchase a Pre War PPK in .22 lr which I still have. I also still have a PPK .22 LR made in 1967 which was one of my first handguns I owned as I'm over 70 years old now. I took both out shooting one day years ago. I exchanged the magazines in both handguns and vice versa and both functioned without any malfunctions, I was quite impressed, as both guns were manufactured in different factories and decades apart.
I have heard that theory as well. They also made a group of chrome guns at the end. (as you likely know). Wish we could still speak with those who ran the factory.
The only German words I know, I learned from watching Hogans Heroes. LMAO!! Thanks Tom.
Thanks Tom
My experience with engraved daggers and swords is that the dominant letter is usually the first initial of the surname. On this pistol, IMHO, the letter V appears to be dominant, making the initials L V.
Louis Vuitton ?
Wow! Thanks for sharing! Keep those videos coming!
Again, your time machine? We want in.... 🤣🤣🤣😍😍😍
Awesome! Loveitt.
That bear metal one looks like a Rockwell finished one,l have one......Thanks beautiful Gun's....!
12:36 This weapon is very similar to the Hungarian PA63 pistol
The man with the Golden Guns, James Bond 2.0
Excellent guns Tom. Your buddy Peter had some collection. Love your channel, thanks
I claim first dibs on the engraved 9mm PPK if you ever decide to sell it, just kidding.
Sorry I have first dibs, are putting in some serious doe on the Euro jackpot, about 50 million dollar! Then I could have them all, if the police are willing to grant me some licenses.
Luis Vuitton had an SA pistol made? 😆
There amzing guns o love the design
Sorry for your loss.
Thank you!!! Love the blue box guns!!
In my younger days before girls I collected militaria had some really nice things. 1911/ 45 nickel plated pearl grips officers pistol with short style holster also a SS - PPK 25 with underarm holster &2 magazines both where in very good shape especially the PPK. Then my life changed when I figured out what girls were for! stupidly sold everything and started into cars oh well you live and you learn.
Nice video! Post war PPK pistols were denied entry to United States market after 1968 due to the height. Missed the import requirement by .25 inch! PPK/S is a PPK slide and barrel on a PP frame.
Admit it Tom, you are a Walther man !!
Thanks.
Love this videos
possibly the .22's were made from parts that had been in storage that were taken out, assembled and numbered toward the end and intended for the Volkstrum or something and just never made it into use?
thanks Tom lovely guns!!!!
Tom, re the High Power; looks like it is the type 2 tangent sight (Vanderlinden, p297) which was shipped without a shoulder stock.
May it be that the .22s was made earlier, not finished at all, and assembled and numbered in 44?
FANTASTIC!!!!!
Maybe the logo less grips are from the proof casting of the casting tools, they checked if they work on the guns, if so, they put in the logo. Because if the tools are not good enough, they had not put in hours of engraving of the logo.
In a negative mold the writing would need to be protruding , not engraved. So they would need to ADD material to the mold. I’m not sure what materials they used for these molds, but that’s much more work than just engraving.
Would he have a prop gun of a PPK used in a certain spy Movie franchise maybe?
The first automatic pistol was the Borchardt in commercial numbers.
..Mr.Tom..
If lying will make you bring out more of those gorgeous WALTHERS...by All means, Lie on!!☺️🙏
The Walther left in the white is maybe left without finish in preperation for engraving. But i have no proof for this.
I know Ford made 6 1936 Model 68 Deluxe Tudor Stainless Cars
The gun in the white drop some rust remover on it and that’s what happens bluing is technically a rust finish no matter how nice it is
I know I’m in trouble when there is stuff I want just in the thumbnail
Is it Stainless Steel?
I love this !
great stuff tom
Farsi is the language used in Iran (Persia) modern Türkiye uses a modified Latin alphabet since 1928 but in the time of the Ottoman Sultan Arabic script would be used to write the Turkish language
No, not the "first semi auto pistol". Nor is the bourchardt c93, although it would be the first somewhat commercially successful with 3,000+ made
So dont leave us hanging. So what was the first semi-auto?
@@thomaswhiteman4261 Ian says it's the Salvator Dormus? Although who truly knows the first of anything. Maby John browning made one for shits and giggles in 1890 and just didn't document it.
Wonder if "Veronica Lake" ever had a Walther like that ??
I come from Australia where handguns are virtually taboo including imitation handguns. When people come to you to either trade or to sell their guns from interstate, do they have to have a permit to travel over a state line?
See Lawrence of Arabia movie, a Turkish soldier shoots Lawrence with one of these.
I'm surprised to see a Turkish weapon marked in Farsi, as opposed to Turkish (and given the period, written using the Arabic alphabet). I have some studying to do!
I was surprised too, but a couple of other videos said Farsi. It could be wrong however.
Looking more closely at the video, I'm pretty sure that "4" is an Arabic numeral, not a Farsi one.
@@LegacyCollectibles Don't go by me, I have no direct knowledge or experience to impart, just things I looked up quickly on the Internet. It might be worth having those markings looked at by a native speaker (reader) or two, though.
actually it is Arabic numbers ,Persian language use Arabic numbers too

Maybe for training as 22's use less resources. Maybe it was meant for the Hitlerjugend leadership school. A war finish pistol wouldn't exactly instill confidence in people not yet thrown into the meat grinder.
Real guns can’t beat hand made craftsmenship
Walders?
I know how much you love your German firearms, but those.22s are nothing to get so excited about. Only a few PPKs are worth drooling over. Same goes for your Lugers. There are so many around that they are really overpriced . Only a few are worth what they're asking for them. And that .45 acp Luger that went for $1million is the biggest waste of money, ever. Broom handles have a place in history, for sure, but they are ugly, awkward and clumsy looking and totally out of any balance. To each his own, I guess. The Belgian Hi-Power is by far the most interesting of this segment. The golden guns at the end, you asked which one would we choose. Well, you chose the one that had the nazi DNA on it, of course. But given the choice, I would certainly have chosen the " clean " one, sans the nazi body fluids ever having come in contact with it.
looks like someone took off the bluing with a chemical.
🖤
your friends and followers dont require A disclaimer.
It's not Farsi. It's Arabic Alphabet's numbers, was in use in Osman empire before modern Turkish Latin letters and numbers.
Maybe those .22 cal pistols were made for the Hitler youth. Just a thought.

Oh, if I had only bought Crypto when I talked myself out of it; I'd have surplus funds and an armoty to rival most museums.

You pronounce the E as a flat U, like in LUTZEH Ehhhh
KOMMUFORNIA SUCKS MUCH ÄSS
Man.......will you stop saying NAZIS.....jeez........Third Reich doesn't take much more effort...
The Third Reich WERE Nazi's. Here at Legacy Collectibles we are allowed to use forbidden words like Nazi guns, Nazi flags, and Nazi daggers. Cant miss them. Those are the ones with the bid swastikas on them!
@@thomaswhiteman4261 there was never such a word used in Germany then.....it was concocted by that drunkard Churchill. It's a very lazy cover all non word that gets thrown about far too much
@@lraubal9851 Did not know that they did not use the word. Here when we are selling WW2 guns the most popular search term by far is "Nazi".
@@thomaswhiteman4261 Your youtube channel, and content is brilliant, it's just that word is so over used and just falls flat in my opinion. ...that a all.
