Our Assessment: The Walther P5 100-Year Anniversary Edition is a beautifully executed tribute to a century of Walther firearms, blending refined aesthetics with the precision engineering of one of the company’s most innovative post-war designs. Chambered in 9mm, the pistol features a 3.5-inch barrel, a deep high-gloss blued finish, and striking gold accents that highlight key markings and controls. The most eye-catching detail is the pair of carved wooden grips, intricately engraved with oak branches and acorns, symbolizing strength, endurance, and German heritage. This limited edition model is both a celebration of Walther’s legacy and a showcase of fine craftsmanship.
Mechanically, the Walther P5 stands out for its unconventional yet highly functional design. Introduced in the 1970s as a successor to the P38, the P5 retains the short-recoil, locked-breech system with a tilting locking block, but it relocates the ejection port to the left side, a rare feature intended to prevent hot brass from striking right-handed shooters. The pistol also incorporates a de-cocking lever, and a double-action/single-action (DA/SA) trigger system. Its internal slide rails and overall build quality contribute to its reputation for accuracy and reliability. The 100-Year Anniversary Edition not only honors this engineering legacy but does so with a level of artistry that makes it highly desirable to collectors and Walther aficionados alike.
