Description
This Walther PK380 is a compact, hammer-fired semi-automatic pistol chambered in .380 Auto, designed for concealed carry and personal defense. It features a black finish on its steel slide and a lightweight black polymer frame with integrated textured grips displaying the Walther logo. The 3.66 inch barrel is housed within a slide that features rear cocking serrations and a manual safety lever. The pistol is equipped with a three-dot sighting system. Significant markings include the Walther banner and PK380 designation on the left side of the slide, while the frame is marked Carl Walther Ulm/Do / Made in Germany. The right side of the slide is stamped WALTHER ARMS / FORT SMITH, AR and .380 AUTO, with the barrel hood similarly marked 380 AUTO. The serial number WB049254 is visible on a metal plate on the right side of the frame, accompanied by German proof marks including DE, a crown over N, and the date code BE. This lot includes one single-stack magazine and a green nylon holster. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The firearm exhibits significant signs of wear and poor storage. There is notable finish loss along the sharp edges of the slide. Extensive surface oxidation and rust are present on the front and rear sights, the hammer, the barrel hood, the takedown lever, and the serrations on the backstrap. The polymer frame remains structurally sound but shows minor scuffs and handling marks. The bore was not inspected but the external condition of the barrel suggests potential for internal fouling or light pitting. The action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The included magazine shows light surface rust and usage wear.
