Description
If you know Walther, you know the lineage. And this P5 Compact — Serial #2 isn’t just another name on a list; it’s practically a footnote in the story. Grab it and you feel the thought that went into it: compact where it counts, solid where it matters.
Think of it as a shrunken P38 that didn’t lose any of the good stuff. Shorter barrel, tighter profile, easy to carry, but with the same clean engineering that made the family famous. The double-action trigger is smooth and honest, not fancy, just dependable. The decocker is a small, smart touch that makes this one safer to carry day to day. Practical details, executed well.
Balance? Perfect. Grip? Just right, the kind of shape that disappears into your hand so you can focus on the shot instead of your grip. And the slide, tight, crisp, and satisfying to work. This pistol was designed to perform, not to show off, and somehow that modesty makes it feel special.
Now add the serial number. Serial #2. That’s not trivia. That’s provenance. For collectors, that number changes the tone of the conversation; for shooters, it’s a neat piece of history to handle and shoot. Either way, it’s the kind of gun you keep for the story as much as for the function.
Would you carry it? Sure. Show it off? Definitely. Put it in a collection? Absolutely. Reliable, refined, and rooted in a serious family tree, this P5 Compact is small enough to tuck away yet memorable enough to make the rest of your collection sit up and take notice.
