    SA Marked Walther PP and Matching Holster

    I came to the forum seeking any available info you guys may have regarding an SA marked Walther PP that my long-time girlfriend has inherited from her father. I've researched these pistols several times, but have become increasingly interested in the particular subsidiary SA group that this one is engraved with. Through my research, I have been unable to find any other surviving PP that is designated from the same SA group. I was hoping you all may be able to provide us with some more info or confirm this groups particular rarity and perhaps gives us an indication on value.

    The pistol and holster are both marked SA and the grip strap designates he pistol as "SA der NSDAP gruppe hochland." Both the slide and barrel feature the crown over N proof and the serial number is 112165P which I believe dates the pistol somewhere in the mid 30s. She also has the original certificate of authenticity that details the release of the pistol as a war prize to her grandfather during his service in WWII. It is signed of and dated by his unit commander.

    Overall condition of the piece is fair, as noted in the pictures both the holster and pistol present considerable wear. The leather latch on the holster has torn away from the body of the holster, but is still present. The pistol's finish shows obvious signs of holster wear, but not too many scratches or other obvious defects. A second magazine is also included with the set.

        Congratulations.
        SA marked pistols are desirable collectable items.
        Yours was made in 1938. The holster can be repaired by George Andersen, who is a member of this forum.
        A final tip: do not store the pistol inside the holster as it will further damage its finish.
        Thanks for sharing.

            Can anyone comment to the rarity of the particular "Gruppe Hochland" that this pistol is marked with? I have been unable to find any record whatsoever of an SA marked Walther from this particular Gruppe.

              I owned one of the Gruppe Hochland PPs in the 997xxx range that I sold a few years ago. They are one of the more uncommonly found SA PP Gruppen. The images you posted are very dark and I was unable to asses the overall condition, except for wear on the right side of the slide. And condition is a vital determinant of value.

                That's really nice! Not too often you come across an SA PP with SA holster AND capture papers.

                No way I would have that repaired. You will only devalue the rig if you get it repaired. I know that sounds strange, but it's true. Like stated above, that's a very historic and valuable rig you have.

                You should put this on this Forum as well:
                www.p38forum.com

                There is a serious PP/PPk following there.
