This video examines the Walther MP prototype pistol chambered in .45 ACP, a precursor to the famed P38. Developed with potential export markets in mind, particularly the US, these prototypes were larger than the standard MP and featured a shrouded hammer and internal extractor. The video suggests these guns were likely souvenir items taken from the Walther plant by American GIs in 1945, as there's no record of US trials. The plan to market these pistols appears to have been abandoned, likely due to the success of the 9mm P38 in German military trials. The content highlights a rare and historically significant firearm.
