Bundeswehr P1 Rear Sights
These are rear sights for the Walther P1, the 9mm pistol issued to the West German Bundeswehr. A rear sight is the notched block at the back of the slide that you line up with the front blade to aim. You get two of them, so P1 and P38 owners, armorers and collectors can replace a damaged or missing sight or keep one in the parts drawer.
Features
- Genuine German Army Issue — These are military contract spare parts made for the Bundeswehr's P1, not aftermarket copies.
- Walther Manufacture — The sights were produced by Walther, the same maker that built the pistol.
- Steel Construction — Each sight is machined from steel and finished in black to match the slide.
- Dovetail Fit — The sight slides into a dovetail, a tapered slot cut across the slide, and is held there by friction.
- Fixed Notch Design — The notch has no adjustment screws and pairs with the pistol's fixed front blade.
- Windage By Sight Swap — On the P1, side-to-side corrections are made by fitting a sight with an offset notch instead of turning a screw.
- P1 And P38 Compatible — The sight fits the P1 and the P38 9mm service pistols.
- Two-Pack — Two sights come in each order, so you have a spare on hand.
Issue And Fit
The P1 was the standard Bundeswehr sidearm for decades, and these sights were made as factory spares for it. Because the P1 shares its slide layout with the P38, the same dovetail sight fits both pistols. Owners restoring an original pistol to issue specification get a correct part from the original supply chain rather than a generic substitute.

Fixed my old P1 right upMy P1 was missing the rear sight entirely. One of the two in the pack dropped in and the dovetail was snug, no filing. The other one had a burr on the bottom edge, had to stone it flat before it would seat. Kept the second as a spare since these are the kind of part that vanishes the second you set it on a bench. Bluing on both was worn but functional.
one dropped in with no fitting,genuine Walther, not aftermarket
second one needed stoning to seat

Genuine Walther fitment beats aftermarketBought these for my 1970s P1 to replace the worn original. They dropped right in with the factory notch and white dot, no filing needed unlike the RTG Parts version I tried before. The two-pack is perfect since I always seem to lose one during cleaning. Love the authenticity of the Carl Walther stamp.

Walther P1 rear sightThey have no idea what they are sending. You may get a R, L or 0 its a complete crap shoot. I specifically asked for a 0 and a R and got two L sights which I already have. Complete waste of time and money
Response from store
Thanks for the review. These are used surplus 2-packs and aren't listed or sold by specific sight marking (R, L, or 0) the markings vary and we're unable to guarantee a particular combination. When your request came in, we sent a prepaid return label right away and will refund you in full when we get the item back. Sorry it wasn't the right fit, and we're glad to help if you're looking for something else. -
Fits the P1 dovetail perfectlyThe rear sight on my P1 had gotten so worn you could barely make out the notch anymore and I was having a hard time getting a decent sight picture at the range. These are factory Carl Walther steel sights and they dropped right into the dovetail without any fitting which I was relieved about. I drifted it slightly to get the windage where I wanted it and now its back to shooting where I point it. Having the second one in the pack is nice because I keep a spare in my range bag just in case. Honestly for the price getting two original surplus sights is a pretty good deal. Packaging was simple but everything arrived intact and undamaged.

Great to have sparesSmart move selling these in pairs! Lost a rear sight at the range. These are original German parts, not knockoffs. Now I keep a spare in my range bag. Both sights I received were in excellent condition with crisp edges.
2-pack is genius
