Posted this in the In-Stock thread.. Figured I would put pics here since that thread would get crowded...
Got my 3 P38s from Wideners. Make sure they use ups or usps as fedex was a PITA. The finish is almost perfect RC on all 3. Numbers on slide, frame and barrel match on 2. One has a forced match barrel. Mags dont match either. Any other numbers to look for? I called and asked if I could het at least one Brown. They sent 2. I also asked for one Brown to be byf. They all Byf. I am quite happy with purchase. much more history than the stupid p64s and toks available right now. They said they wont hand select but always do best out first. Essentially automatically hand select till they get to junk which they sell at discount. So, if interested, buy soon. Sorry, I can only take pics of two right now. The other is soaking to clean out grease/oil. It's essentially the same. The brown grip on in these pics is my favorite. Take a close look at those sweet grips!

Can you post a picture of the import markings on the Widener's P38? I'm intrigued by their description.  The importer placed the import mark on the front part of the grip effectively hiding it from being obviously seen. These are the first "importer marked" P38's Ive seen that were not billboard-ed on the slide. I just cannot explain how great of shape these handguns are in considering their age... they look unissued! |

Not very happy with them right now. Specifically asked for non CYQ. They sent me CYQ. Is isn't worth it spending $50 to ship it back. Dang, I specifically asked for BYF and they gave me 3 BYF"s... I would trade ya if I wasn't so attached. I am guessing they read your request and thought you wanted a CYQ.. perhaps they read it fast. To answer other questions. The import mark is like the other one I got from J&G a couple years ago... Essentially, most of the front of grip. You don't notice it when you are shooting, I assure you. 
At least it's not on the side. The bores on mine were very good to excellent. I can't complain. |
