The ProMag WAL01 delivers reliable feeding and extended capacity for classic Walther P1 and P38 pistols. This aftermarket magazine provides shooters with a dependable 8-round capacity in a traditionally manufactured blued steel construction that maintains the aesthetic integrity of these iconic German service pistols.
What Makes This Different
Unlike original military surplus magazines that may suffer from worn springs or feed lip damage, the WAL01 features new construction with modern manufacturing tolerances. The blued steel body matches the finish of original Walther magazines while providing consistent dimensions for reliable chambering. ProMag's heat-treated steel construction resists deformation under stress, maintaining proper magazine geometry even after extended use.

Range testing demonstrates consistent feeding with standard 9mm ball ammunition and common hollow point designs.
