Does anyone have any info on the Manhurin P1? Is it a good, quality gun and how does it shoot?

  It's just another post-war alloy frame P-38. The only reason for the uncommon Manurhin ( French ) markings was that their was legal restrictions prohibiting the Police in Berlin from using firearms made in West Germany.
  
  Because of the relatively few around with the Manurhin markings (my reference shows just over 15,000 used in West Berlin ) it would be more desirable for collectors, if not now then in the future
  
  
  If you just want a P 38 as a shooter? Get hold of one of the ex West German Army ones with the reinforced frame, ( hex steel pin ). It likely will be a lot more durable then the Manurhin.
