This was my service pistol for a few years and I loved it, much more than the H&K P8 we got afterwards.

Hi there, veryyy interesting video thank you. Im about to purchase a P38, the thing is i find strange that the serial number is on the *Right side of the slider* number 392423, and not on the left side as i see every single other P 38 ive come across on the internet. Is there aby chance you might know why this is ? Thanks so much 🙏🏻 Love your chanel 🔫💥💥💥❤️

Looks like a beretta 92. I like the exposed barrel. That holster has a slot for an extra magazine, and because extra magazines cost so much it prolly be empty. Anyways, you should get a darth Vader pez dispenser for the mag pouch cause that gun reminds me of darth Vader and pez is goodOr do a part 2 of this video to tell us what you did with the mag pouch.

Good suggestions Sir! I actually found a mag at a good price. It's labeled P1 but works well. I'll see what else fits in there.

I mean, having the opportunity to buy a' almost totally similar pistol than the p38 for a 1/3rd of it's price is a great deal. I'm shure that in the next few years those prices are going to rise most definitly. Great investment !

Looks like two different types of finish on those as well. Is the x-grade just worn down phosphate or is was it blued?

Correct! The Century V.G. is a phosphate and the AIM X grade is a worn blue. Nice to have two different examples. Did you pick one up and if so, what finish did you get?

Portugal was the last country to retire their military P38's…. 2019.

A pretty nice run for these guys. I wasn't aware of the Portuguese service history, thanks.
