Thanks

Thanks

The more interest there is, the more chance I have of producing these at a realistic price so every single notification of an interest is very encouraging.

Further to my initial post on the Purchase of my Walther LP53 I have been able to source a nice display case to house it in
Comes with key, couple of plastic containers containing oil and brushes
I think it must be a reproduction case of some sort as my LP53 dates from 1973
Very nice case though

Looks a very smart case.
Is this a one off, or are these "freely" available?
Kind regards,
Phil

Is this the James Bond model?

Yes, it is the model referred to as the "James Bond" gun.benthompson wrote:Is this the James Bond model?
Sadly it's popularity amongst the movie buffs has driven second hand prices up as they are being collected. I suppose it isn't that bad as they are being cared for, but personally I would like to see them being used.
but that's just me.

It's going back some time but did you ever make theses parts?zooma wrote:I am planning to make a small run of the LP53 spring steel rear sight base/holder.
I have to cost it all out to see what the price will be - but if there is any interest, please let me know as the more I can cut/shape/temper and black at a time, the more it will reduce the cost of them.
The smaller the number - the greater the cost per piece will be.
This part always fails, and there seems to be none available from anywhere, so I am hoping there is a demand for them so I can make them for a reasonable price.
The next step will be to CNC cut, polish and anodise a rear sight block to fit it as I understand some of these have been lost over the years as well....and they will make a good upgrade for the Predom as too!

No Russel, they were never made. Something for me to think about though. Maybe.
Though I haven't had anyone ask me for one in some years.
