The Walther P38K is a legitimate post-war production pistol from the 1970s, distinct from WWII field modifications. It features a short 2.8-inch barrel and a hybrid design incorporating elements from the P1 and P4 models. Despite its unique construction and limited production of around 2,500 units, it occupied an awkward niche, making it a rare collector's item today.

This video details a range day with a 1942 Walther P38, highlighting two significant failures: a mechanical issue with the loaded chamber indicator and ammunition-related short-stroking. The analysis reveals the indicator can cause malfunctions and that the P38 cycled better with Tula steel-cased ammo than Blazer Brass. The discussion also touches on historical design choices and post-war improvements in models like the P4.
