This firearm was passed down from my father who captured it from a German Officer. I also have the holster and military release paperwork. I believe it to be a Model 4 but the ejection port is on the right side and I've not seen another like it. Also the striations on the slide are an unusual number of cuts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much for the information!

My father passed many years ago and my sister only remembers parts of the story. Here is a photo of the military release he was supplied to have permission to bring it home. So cool and interesting. It also lists it as a .25 caliber but the serial number is correct.

It’s a Modell 7 should be in .25 ACP and the barrel bushing is either missing or installed on the wrong end of the recoil spring. Thats why the spring is showing.

I think it is a Model 7:

Walther Model 7 & 8

Early Walther Pistols - Model 7

That looks like it! Thank you so much, now I have something more to go on and research!
