The Walther P-38 is my all time favorite pistol.
In fact, what started all this was I wanted a replica of the Walther P-38 that was converted by Stembridge Arms for the John Wayne film "BIG JAKE"
In the film, Chris Mitchum was supposed to have a Bergman Semi-Auto pistol. I suspect that they couldn't get one and had Stembridge modify the P-38 to resemble the Bergman.
My buddy and I often spoke of that gun and he said "Why don't you make one?" I thought "I can't do that!!!" BUT I thought "Well, why not give it a try... I did make it and after he saw it said "Ok, now you need to make one for me!!" Which I did.
Because I want it to be a surprise to him, and since he reads this board, I didn't post a pic of it. I will after I give it to him at the October Chiller. I'll then post a photo for everyone else to see.
Because I had several leftover grips from converting them to Man from UNCLE guns I thought it would look "cool" to make these guns using those extra grips (NEVER throw anything away is my motto)
