Rare East German P.38 Pistol | Ernst Thalmann

Today, we show you a rare post-WW2 P.38 Pistol made in the Ernst Thalmann factory in East Germany in 1953. The story of the Thalmann factory begins with Germany in the 1920's. At that time, Germany had just lost WW1 and the people were out of work and generally unhappy. That's when the communist movement in Germany started to take hold. Ernst was the leader of this communist uprising. When the Russians took hold of the Walther factory, they took all of the equipment and blueprints from the Walther factory. They sent up their own factory in East Germany, manufactured this P.38 (using the resources from the Walther factory) in a factory they named after the poster child of the communist movement in Germany, Ernst Thalmann.
