Hello i just bought my second walther (first was a p-38) and had a question about the safety. First the particulars: its a crown over n model in the 845XXX range, it has a 90deg safety and its serial number is also at the front of the slide under the muzzle.
My question is i've read that the safety is supposed to drop the hammer when rotated to the safe position, mine doesn't. I detail stripped it, replace the springs and did not see anything obviously wrong. Is it possible that mine predates this feature.
FYI it came with two mags one with a finger extension, no serial and one number to the gun as well as some papers that indicates it was turned in to the americans in berlin and taken home by a GI.
Thanks
