    Engraved Walther PP in Argentine Museum?

    In the December issue of "Firearms News" is found a particularly nondescript article on the production of Walther PP/PPKs from origin to today titled "Shaken Not Stirred" by Partrick Sweeney. I would have tossed it if not for this interesting image of a blued, engraved Walther PP in 9mmK with what look like ivory grip panels in a factory presentation case. The location was identified as "a military museum in Buenos Aires". It appears to be a factory issue presentation case, cleaning rod and flat bottom magazine. The caliber on the magazine seems to have been highlighted with whitener of some sort. But the three cartridges in the case seem to be marked .380 auto, so I think these are replacements. There appears to be some kind of a card next to the box and two gold letters are visible: Do.

    Are there any forum members from Argentina who might find out further information about this pistol,like the serial number? Thank you

    I'd certainly like to hear about any military museums in Buenos Aires, as I may (??) be headed there next year on a trip that would afford me some free time to visit museums. If feasible, I would be happy to visit the museum where this PP is located and take the best photos possible under the circumstances.

      A little google goes a long way. Try this place during your visit Alan.
