The Spreewerke Factory at Berlin-Spandau was the third manufacturer assigned to produce the P38. Production began in September 1941. Capture One Pro Trial Reset Download on this page. At the end of June 1942 they delivered 50 pistols for testing, which were rejected. In August they delivered another 300 for testing, and these were finally given the long awaited acceptance proof, (eagle 88).

The army now demanded 10,000 pistols per month from Spreewerke, although this amount was never obtained. By the end of the war Spreewerke produced around 285,000 P38s. The plant originally made anti-aircraft guns, their machining equipment was not designed for small work, like pistols, thus the rough machining marks found on cyq P-38s. The one and only P38 in my collection is also a Spreewerke example made in August of 1944. All matching, non-import marked. Picked it up in August 2012 for $595.
