From the Vault: Heinrich Himmler's Walther PP Pistol
This video from Brownells showcases a unique and ornate Walther PP pistol that once belonged to Heinrich Himmler, a high-ranking Nazi official. The video features firearm historians Keith and Steve from Brownells Gun Techs at Rock Island Auction Company. They detail the pistol's history, its release in 1929, its double-action, blowback operation, and its chambering in 7.65mm Browning (.32 ACP). The pistol is described as a chrome-plated presentation piece with extensive engraving, not intended for regular use or shooting, and in pristine condition. The video speculates on its journey to the United States, likely brought back by a soldier after World War II.
