Walther PPK that is NSKK marked with original holster
This is an exceptional example of an all original Nazi NSKK Walther PP pistol rig. These pistols were issued to officers in the National Sozialistisches Kraftfahr Korps (National Socialist Transport Corps), and based on the serial number listings in the book “Walther Models PP and PPK 1929 – 1945” (Blue cover) by James L. Rankin, this pistol falls into the correct serial number range for that model. The left side of the slide has the standard factory markings of: “Walther” inside a banner followed by the two-line address and caliber markings/”Mod.PP” followed by the slightly larger “NSKK” inside a banner over the Nazi eagle holding a swastika. The matching last three digits of the serial number is correctly scribed inside the slide. The chamber, muzzle and slide are correctly marked with “Crown/ N” proofs. It is fitted with the original two-piece black plastic, checkered grips with Walther banners on the top. It is complete with one original Walther/PP marked magazine with the black plastic finger base plate. This excellent pistol is complete with an exceptional, Nazi issue, black leather, “N.S.K.K.” marked holster. The holster is correctly stamped with a large and deeply struck “N.S.K.K./Nazi Eagle” at the top of the holster flap with the correct “D.R.G.M./Cross Rifles/Akah” markings for Albrecht Kind. This is a very rare holster in this condition.
Walther PPK Condition Statement
Excellent plus with 98% of the original high polish blue finish overall and extremely minor edge high spot wear with clear sharp markings to include the “NSKK” markings on the slide. 95% plus of the original niter blue remains on the safety. The grips are also in excellent condition. The holster is also in excellent condition with a very nice, clear and deeply stamped “NSKK” mark on the front flap. The holster retains 98% of its original black color overall with only minor scuffing on the toe, the lower edge of the magazine pouch and on the back of the holster on the belt loop. A really extraordinary high condition NSKK marked Walther PP pistol rig.

Walther PPK Party Leader Semi-Automatic Pistol Rig
This is an early production Walther Party Leader Model PPK pistol rig. This PPK pistol rig has the Political Leader Party grips, an original Party Leader brown leather holster and brown leather belt. These PPKs fitted with the Party Leader type grips were officially known as the “Honor Weapon of the Political Leaders” as they were usually presented to high ranking Nazi officers for meritorious service to the Party. NSDAP Party Leader grips are found on Walther PPKs in two serial number ranges; 850,000 to 935,000 and again in the “174,000K to 234,965K” range. Which indicates that this example was produced early on in the second serial number block. The grips themselves are molded from a mottled-brown plastic material that has the distinctive large Nazi Eagle clutching a Swastika encircled by a wreath at the top on both sides with the balance of the grip having impressed checkering. This example has the standard two-line factory markings of the Walther Banner, factory legend, caliber and model designation. The pistol is a pre-war commercial model with the “Crown/N” proofmarks on the slide, chamber area and front end of the barrel. The pistol has a 60 degree safety lever, cartridge indicator pin and lanyard loop on the bottom of the frame. The serial number is marked on the right side of the frame with the last three digits (657) correctly scratched inside the slide. It comes with two original Walther marked blued magazines, one with a matching mottled brown plastic extended finger rest and the other a flat base. As noted, this scarce pistol comes with an original Party Leader brown leather holster that is stamped with the large Nazi Eagle on the front flap. The lower front flap is stamped, “D.R.G.M./Crossed Rifles/Akah”. It also comes with a unmarked brown Party Leader type leather dress belt.
Walther PPK Condition Statement:
Very fine with 98% of the blue finish still remaining overall with blue loss on the front edges of the slide. The grips are in fine condition with some slight warpage on the top and lower front edges. There is a minor scratch on the upper right side of the grip. The holster is in good condition with a dark brown leather surface with a faint Nazi Eagle on the front flat with clear distinct maker’s marks on the lower front flap. The stitching is tight. There is some age cracking and slightly heavier scuffing of the leather on the lower front edge of the magazine pouch. The belt is in very fine condition. A very nice looking and highly desirable early Nazi Party Leader Walther PPK rig.
Walther Ppk Serial Number Date
The Walther PPK (Polizei Pistole Kriminal) was produced since 1930. It was developed for a hidden carriage. The engineers from Walther reduced the length, width and weight. The main difference to the PP is the frame with no back strap. this function was integrated in a single molded Grip. Also the grip was shortened, so the clip has only a capacity of 7 rounds. The shortness was balanced with a magazine-shoe on the bottom.
The PPK and the PP were also produced very successfully after war. Even James Bond had an Walther PPK.
