This video examines a Walther experimental hybrid pistol from the early 1930s, created to compete with the Colt Woodsman. Walther modified an Olympia target pistol by incorporating a Woodsman-style grip angle to test its effectiveness. Ultimately, Walther decided to stick with their original grip design, making this hybrid a historical dead end. The video highlights the differences in grip angles between the two popular pistols of the era and the experimental nature of firearm development.
This video examines a rare toolroom prototype of the Walther Olympia target pistol chambered in .32 ACP. Developed in the late 1930s, this unique firearm utilizes the frame of a standard 1936 pattern Olympia .22LR with modifications including a .32 caliber barrel, a heavier slide for increased mass, and a magazine adapted from the Walther PP. The project appears to have never progressed beyond this single sample, likely due to limited market demand for such a niche pistol and Walther's increasing focus on military production during that era.
This video delves into the Walther Olympia, a German target pistol produced between the World Wars. Introduced in 1925 as a competitor to the Colt Woodsman, the Olympia was a .22 Long Rifle, semi-automatic pistol. The video showcases various iterations of the Olympia, including the original 1925 model, the improved 1936 version with optional barrel weights, and transitional experimental models. It highlights the pistol's design features, market positioning, and its evolution in response to customer desires and the post-WWI arms manufacturing restrictions on Walther.
