Georg von Stavenhagen Walther P 38 Mod. S

Description

An exceptional rarity in the world of postwar pistol craftsmanship, this Walther P38 Mod. S is one of only approximately seven known examples expertly modified by renowned German gunsmith Georg von Stavenhagen. Utilizing original Walther-supplied components and leftover Wehrmacht parts, Stavenhagen transformed the iconic P38 into a refined collector’s masterpiece.

The pistol features smooth walnut grips, each elegantly contoured and mounted with a single screw. The slide is crisply engraved:

“Carl Walther Waffenfabrik Ulm – Modell P38 S Cal. 9mm Para.”

Among Stavenhagen’s enhancements are a precision-modified trigger with integrated trigger-stop, a redesigned hammer, reworked safety mechanism, and refined sights—hallmarks of his subtle yet effective upgrades for improved ergonomics and performance. The rear grip strap is finished in a nicely matching anodized tone, further underscoring the pistol’s custom nature.

Notably, the right-hand grip panel bears Georg von Stavenhagen’s distinctive company logo, signifying its pedigree. The combination of craftsmanship, rarity, and historical intrigue makes this piece a coveted addition to any high-end collection.
