Walther Prototype MP - A Missing Link From PP to P38
This video delves into the Walther Prototype MP, a crucial transitional pistol developed between the PP/PPK and the iconic P38. Focusing on the second "MP" design, the presenter highlights its exposed barrel (similar to the P38) and fixed barrel (like the PP), along with a unique locking system blending Pedersen and tilting bolt short recoil elements. The discussion also touches upon its single recoil spring and its eventual evolution into the P38, noting the scarcity of surviving examples of this specific prototype.
