Walther vest pockets?
Can you give the correct Walther numbers for these pistols?(1 through 10) Hints,One was favored by German officers during WWI and produced for only one year (not seen too often). The other was favored by German soldiers during WWII and produced for a long time.The last one was one of the smallest vest pockets made.
Thanks for looking,
Joe

I am betting that the smallest, the one marked "Mod 9", is a Model 9.
Did I get it right?

The middle is a Model 8. The small one is a 9. I'm not up enough on the early ones.
Maybe Mod. 4?
For some reason, most of the few Mod.9's that I've seen are pitted or blotched like this one. Maybe it's from perspiration due to pocket carry? That job really cries out for a stainless gun, which they didn't have when those were made. The open-top slide, like that on most Berettas, should help with ejection.

Q Ball, You are correct 7,8,9 How did you find the #7 answer? T.S. good try, and hand ejector very observant!
T.S. you are correct on the blotching thing but with the macro pictures they really stand out.
Your responses are appreciated,
Joe
Next time extremely hard!
