Hello there! Few weeks ago I managed to get a batch of classic pistols. I took four guns in nice condition from a collector who is giving up the hobby. This is one of them: a Mauser P.38, dated 1944, "v" block. Condition is great only bearing some holster wear in the high edges. It is matching down to the bone. From the beggining of my deal, this was my primary target, as I did not have a byf code in my collection. Besides that, the gun's condition was great, and it came with a nice hardshell holster (I was informed that this holster maker is somewhat scarce) and a spare mag. What more could I ask for? Now it stands together with my ac44, "f" block and I'm happy as a clown with this pair! I tried to do my best with the pictures. I hope you guys enjoyed as much as I did. Greetings, Douglas

Hello folks, Well, I don't know exactly where to post this but let's give it a try here. All I know is that it was probably made in London in 1545(?). Here is the deal: a friend of mine sent me these pictures. It seems that a person that he knows has or found this ancient cannon. He wants to know more and, if possible, its value. I have no further pictures or any other information regarding its size or caliber. Any (I mean ANY) information is more than welcome. Thanks in advance Douglas.

Hugh, Sorry for my delay to answer you. This is what I've been told regarding the HP35 dating: ".... 'a' block was made in 1943 and the 60k+ "b" block was made in 1944 up to when the germans abondoned the factory in in late aug 1944. Since there were 100K "a" block pistols over the 12 months, assuming linear production, an average of 8k+ were made each month. Remember the germans took the the factory on may 29 1940. They started production at serial number 50,000 and went up to around 212,000 before starting the "a" suffix numbering. This is 160,000 pistols for 1/2 of 1940, 1941 and 1942 or 30 months for an average of 5+k per month. Compared to 160,000 pistols for 1943 and 8 months of 1944 or 20 months for an average of 8+k per month. This is odd production out put." "...
