Description
Some pistols just do the job. The Walther P88? It made a statement. Born in the 1980s during a push for next-generation sidearms, the P88 was Walther’s bold answer to what a modern 9mm should be—double-action, supremely accurate, and built with ambidextrous controls that felt like second nature, whether you’re left- or right-handed.
Now, the one we’ve got here—serial number V1170—isn’t your average P88. It’s a rare find, especially with three extra barrels included. That’s not just a bonus; that’s a complete modular system in your hands. Whether you’re tailoring it for range work, personal defense, or simply enjoying the process of fine-tuning your setup, those barrels give you real options. It’s like getting a precision tool that can adapt as your needs (or preferences) evolve.
Let’s talk presentation. This P88 comes in its original factory box—a small detail, sure, but collectors know how much that matters. It’s about preserving the story, the provenance, the character. That box, that serial, those barrels—they don’t just make this pistol practical; they make it personal.
For serious collectors, the P88 is a known quantity—reliable, refined, and a turning point in Walther’s design history. But this particular example goes one step further. It’s not just about what it can do; it’s about what it represents. A snapshot of 1980s innovation. A pistol that still holds its own today. And maybe—just maybe—a smart investment for tomorrow.
