This one is well loved, and has an electro pencil rack number on the side. I believe the importer was Heritage Arms. Anybody know where where Heritage had imported these from?

I have P5 that was a commercial model sold here in the 80's.

IIRC all the imported P5's were from different West German LEO agencies.

I would check out one of the Walther forums to get a more detailed answer.

Again, IIRC the pistols had markings on them that indicated what agency had them, but sometimes they were struck from the gun when sent out of the country as surplus.

Anyway, congrats on getting a great 9mm pistol, enjoy it.
