About a Walther 6 you must write no longer much since the few facts are known.
I had the opportunity to take some pics of an unique Walther 6 rig a couple of days ago.
The weapon # 631 is one of the quite scarce Imperial accepted pieces in almost brand-new condition.
The unusual chromium plated (nickel-plated?) magazine has to be taken into account.
This all is surpassed by the holster which has taken a remarkable way.
Manufacturer:
Hermann Flohr, Cöln 1915. Under the flap you see the ink stamp B A X 15 (quartermaster's store 10, 1915).

After the war, obviously the holster then has come to a mail-order house for theater clothes (Alkier,in the city of Görlitz).
In the course of the time this holster landed at the German television radio of the DDR and was inventoried there.
The significance of the other stamps and markings are still unknown.
Pay attention to the general condition also here.

I wish you a lot of fun with that

Fritz.

How many M6s are known also marked GERMANY?
I have SN 723 with GERMANY above left grip; grip stamped: O.Lt. K. Demmler.
Have not been able to find any info on Demmler.

Excellent photographzs and presentation of Imperial accepted M6 Walther, sn 631. The Imperial accepted M6 Walther is the rarest World War I German pistol. To top it off, it also has the issue holster.

Imperial accepted M6 Walther, sn 636, is shown on page 39 of Volume I. The only other serial number that I am aware of is 682.
Thanks
Jan
