Walther Models 1-9, PP, PPK, and P38 Pistol Identification Guide This is one of a series of identification guides for small arms produced by Walther. In 1910, Walther introduced the 'Deutche Selbstlade Pistole Walther' in 6.35mm. When the Model 2 was released in 1914, this pistol became known as the Model 1. Serial numbers for the Military & Police ranged from number 1 in the series to 20,975.
