Hello, my model 2 has the same problem. I identified that the bolt was flattened and shortened by the hammer. Now I try to rebuild it and try it.

I have a model 1, serial 40439, that has been in my family for over 70 years. Great little rifle but I’d love to have a 10 round magazine for it.
I’d also like any recommendations for websites where I might be able to find parts for it.

Hi, I have a Model 2 bought new by my family. Serial number WR 49681.
I no longer shoot it or have use for it. Any ideas. I am in Florida USA.

Hello, I also own this beautiful rifle, specifically model 1. I have a problem that sometimes it shoots a dose and sometimes it doesn’t even draw the conclusion or it doesn’t fire the cartridge. I’ve tried different types of ammunition, but the problem is still there. If anyone from this forum can help or advise what to do with it, I will be very happy. Thank you

Automatischer Walther Karabiner Modell 1

Hi, I’m in the UK – far from ideal if your hobby is guns!

I own a lovely, pre-WWII Carl Walther Model 1 rifle. I’ve owned this pretty .22LR rifle for over 40 years. First introduced around 1931, my research indicates that this ‘Walther Model 1′ carbine was manufactured around 1936 in the Zella-Mehlis factory. The serial number is: 13755.

The barrel is stamped ‘Crown over B’, ‘Crown over U’ and ‘Crown over G’ on the right-hand side, and ‘Crown over N’ and ‘Nitro’ on the left-hand side. ‘Crown over N’ indicates that the rifle was manufactured and proofed before 15 January 1940.

The overall condition is very fine. Blueing is 98% and has partially turned to a pleasant, aged plum colour. The bore is excellent, bright with well-defined rifling and no rust, corrosion or frosting. The stock presents very well with a few light usage marks, but no splits, cracks or repairs.

The rifle has never been modified (no holes for scopes, or other attachments). It’s basically just as it left the factory some 85 years ago.

The only issue is that the tallest leaf on the tri-leaf rear sight no longer latches into the upright position. The other flip-up leaf latches correctly. Does anyone have a spare tri-leaf rear sight they would part with?

The rifle performs faultlessly and is very pleasant to shoot. I don’t think it has had a lot of use, especially these past 40 years.

I’ve now reached that stage in life where the years have started to catch up with me, so I’m thinking I might sell the rifle. Can anyone give me an indication of the value of my Walther Model 1 carbine?

TIA.
